Example text to highlight and drag out words
Mr Wolf soon found Grandma's cottage. He opened the wooden door and peeked inside. There was Grandma in her cosy bed. She was wearing her best nightcap. She was wearing her new spectacles too. Poor Grandma was terrified. "Help!" she cried, but no one heard her. The wolf grinned his most wicked grin. Then he pounced into the cottage and ate poor Grandma all up. He was so greedy that he swallowed her whole. Nasty Mr Wolf licked his lips. Then he put on Grandma's best nightcap and her new spectacles. He hadn't eaten those. He slipped into Grandma's bed . It was still warm. He pulled up Grandma's covers, right up to his wicked chin. Then he waited. He just waited, grinning his wicked grin.
