My Friend Fred
I have a friend, his name is Fred,
And sometimes he stands on his head.

1
Fred uses his hands to walk around,
They go backwards and forwards on the ground.

It can be quite strange to see,


So people look at Fred and me.

We go to the park and on the bus,


And people always look at us.

When he’s not standing on his head,


Sometimes Fred uses his feet, instead.
