"One day a little boy set out to visit his grandmother.
He went to the railway station.
On the platform stood the stationmaster.
'I'm going to visit my grandmother,'
said the little boy
and he climbed onto the train.
The station master blew his whistle, Wheeeeeeeeeeeee!
The train went Tooooo! Tooooo! and off they went.

Faster Faster Faster faster,
until they reached the next station.
On the platform stood the stationmaster.
The little boy climbed down from the train.
'Have you seen my grandmother?' he asked.
'There are only elephants here,' replied the station master.
'Is you grandmother an elephant?'
'No!' cried the little boy
and he climbed back onto the train.
The stationmaster blew his whistle, Wheeeeeeeeeeeee!
The train went Tooooo! Tooooo! and off they went.
