The Long Grass

‘Peppa and George are playing in the garden.’

Oh!

‘The grass has not been cut for a while. It has grown very long.’

Come on, George.

George, where are you?

I can’t see you!

George, I’m coming to get you.

‘Peppa and George cannot see each other.’

‘Peppa and George love playing in the long grass.’

‘Daddy pig is going to read his newspaper.’

What a nice day for doing. nothing.

‘Daddy pig loves doing nothing.’

Oh, goodness me, Daddy pig, we’ve let the garden get a bit out of control.

What do you mean Mummy pig?

The grass. It needs cutting.

Oh, I quite like it. It’s the wild garden look.

Mummy! Daddy! Come and play in the long grass! It’s fun!

Ok. Let’s all play with this spotty ball.

Oh, where’s it gone?

‘The ball is lost in the long grass.’

Now we’ll never find it.

Hmm, maybe it is time to cut the grass.

Yes, Daddy pig.

Oh, I’ll get the lawnmower.

I’m sure it’s here somewhere.

Ah, here it is.

‘Daddy pig has found the lawnmower.’

It’s a bit old and rusty.

Nonsense.

It’ll have the grass cut in no time.

It does seem a bit rusty.

Maybe I should phone Grandpa pig and ask if we can borrow his lawnmower.

There’s no need to phone Grandpa. I just need to push a bit harder.

‘Daddy pig’s lawnmower is not very good.’

Oh I know! let’s phone Grandpa.

Hello. Grandpa pig speaking.

Hello, Grandpa Pig. Could you help us cut some very long grass?

Oh, haha, certainly. I’ll be over right away.

Bye.

I think this is a job for Betsey.

‘Grandpa pig is driving his motor mower over to Peppa’s house.’

Grandpa pig!

Oppa Ig!

Hello, everyone. I hear there’s some grass that needs cutting.

And it’s just a bit too long for my lawnmower.

Don’t worry, Betsy will have it done in no time.

Is yours lawnmower called Betsy?

She certainly is.

Hello, Betsy.

Grandpa, can we ride on Betsy?

Of course you can. Hop aboard.

Aye_aye, Captain Grandpa.

We’ll have this grass cut in no time. Hold tight. Here we go!

Wheee!

‘Betsy is very good at cutting grass.’

This is fun!

There! Finished!

Grandpa, you’ve missed a bit.

Oh, yes. What’s this?

Oh, the spotty ball. Thank you for finding our ball, Grandpa.

And thank you for cutting the grass.

Cutting grass is easy with Betsy.

Now we can play with our spotty ball.

To you, Daddy.

‘The ball bounces very well on the short grass.’

To you, George.

‘Oppa ‘Ig.

Catch!
