Songs So That You Don’t Cry Wolf

“There once was a shepherd boy who was bored as he sat on the hillside watching the village sheep. To amuse himself he took a great breath and sang out, “Wolf! Wolf! The Wolf is chasing the sheep!”  – The Boy Who Cried Wolf 

“Then the wolf showed his teeth and said, ‘Then I’ll huff and I’ll puff and I’ll blow your house down.'” – The Three Little Pigs
