Little Miss Bossy

On Monday Misses Bossy went for a walk and she met Mr. Nosey.
“ Where are you going? | he asked.
“ Mind your own business, “ She retorted.
On Tuesday she met Mr Nosey.
Hwe was singing.Noisily, of course.
“ Shut up! “ she told him.
On Wednesday she met Mr Happy and he was smiling, as usual.
“ take that silly smile out of your face!| she said.
As you can imagine, little Miss Bossy wasn’t very popular. To say at least.
Now, did Miss Bossy realise, but somebody had seen her Bossying about Mr Nosey, Mr Nosey,
and Mr appy.
The wizard, whose name was Mr Wilfred, went home thinking.” Something really ought to be
done about Miss Bossy.”. When he went home, went straight to his library. He took a large, red
book from the shelf. It hadn’t been read for a very long time.
He looked through the book until he found page 104 and on the top of the page it was written,
“ How to stop people being bossy”.
The wizard read everything, put the book back on the shelf and grinned a particularly wizardy
sort of grin.
On Thursday, Miss Bossy met somebody who was very sleepy, as usual, Mr Lazy.
“ Wake up! “she said crossly, and prodded him in the tummy.
Behind Miss Bossy, Mr Wilfred, the Wizard, who had been following her, muttered the words
he had read in the magic red book at page 104. Suddenly, as if by magic, there appeared on
Miss Bossy’s feet a pair of boots.
Miss Bossy went down in alarm. They were magic boots, and being magic boots, they could
speak to each other.
“Hello, Left!” said the right boot.
“Hello, right!” said the left boot.
‘ Ready when you are, “ said Right.
”Ok.” Said Left, and off they went. Left, Right, Left, Right, Left, Right, Left, Right, Left, Right.
Faster and faster, marching poor Little Miss Bossy along. Little Miss Bossy couldn’t do anything
about it.
Mr Lazy was amused and told Mr Wizard: ‘ Well done!”
Wilfred winked a wizardy wink.
The boots marched Miss Bossy for five miles and she was exhausted. When they stopped she
was out of breath.She tried to take the boots off, but it was impossible. Then Mr Wizard
appeared and told miss Bossy:” The boots are only for people who are bossy!’
“Make them go away at once!” she cried, stamping her feet. But, to her surprise, she couldn’t
stamp her feet.
“ YOU …….WILL……..DO……… AS ………….I ……….SAY!!!”shouted Miss Bossy.
When the boots heard this, they set off again and marched for 10 miles again. When they finally
stopped, Mr Wizard appeared again.
“ MAKE THESE STUPID BOOTS GO AWAY!” shouted Miss Bossy.
‘ Only if you say the magic words!”replied mr Wizard.
Miss Bossy thought and thought and thought again.
“ Please, “she said.
“That’s better, “ smiled Mr Wizard.
Mr Wizard muttered the magic word again, and, as if by magic, the boots disappeared.
“ Now, then,” said Wilfred sternly, wagging his finger, ” Stop being bossy, or you know what will
happen.”
Miss Bosses nodded miserably.
“ Very well, “ smiled Wilfred and then he left.
From then on, until now off, little Miss Bossy was a changed person. Not Bossy at all.
And now she is afraid of “Bossy Boots.”
