_NELL THE NIBBLER_


She ate some chocolate drops at 1,
At 2, she thought she'd take
A little jelly and a bun;
At 3, some frosted cake.

At 4, she nibbled at a roll;
At 5, a doughnut spied,
And ate it (all except the hole),
And then some cookies tried.

At 6, she didn't feel quite right,
And didn't care for dinner.
She said she had no appetite,
With so much Goop-food in her!
