The snail train Rain is on its way. “Let us play in the rain,” said Simon Snail. “May we stay and play with my birthday clay?” asked Sally Snail. “No way! Let’s make a snail train in the rain. I will hold your tail and you will sail on the wet hay. We will make a snail trail. But first I must spray you with water. Put on your boots and yellow raincoats,” says Simon Snail. Boots? But snails don’t have feet! “Bring your gloves and scarves,” continues Simon Snail. Gloves? Snails also don’t have hands! “Then bring your socks and jackets,” Simon Snail says. Socks? Jackets? Oh no - socks or jackets snails don’t need either. Wait - here comes the hail. Back home we go. We can play another day!
