Up in the hills of Sunberry across from the park on Market Street Thomas Hippopotamus and Annabella Pelican lived next door to each other They were the best of friends
On cool spring mornings they pedaled hard up Mountainbrook Hill to zoom in the breeze through the pom pom trees on their way to the park on Market Street One day they discovered
a big black weather beaten boot with seven buckles worn with age This is a pirate's boot for sure Annabella declared Oh what if he comes back to get it Let's hide it in a secret place said Thomas
They buried their treasure in the sunflower patch three long jumps from Apple Tree Bridge Let's keep it here forever said Thomas And we can check on it now and then Annabella whispered I'll make a map so we'll always be able to find it said Thomas
