The Story of The Grey Lady and the Strawberry Snatcher
The book tells the tale of a quiet grey lady. She goes to the market and buys some fresh, red strawberries. As she heads home, a sneaky blue creature with long fingers starts following her. This creature really wants to steal her delicious strawberries!
The grey lady notices she's being followed. She tries to escape the strawberry snatcher in many clever ways. First, she quickly hops onto a bus. When that doesn't work, she swings away on a vine, like a jungle adventurer!
One of her most amazing tricks is when she blends into a grey swamp. Only her face and hands can be seen, making it very hard for the blue creature to find her. The blue creature gets very frustrated because he can't get the strawberries. In the end, he gives up on the strawberries. Instead, he finds some tasty blackberries and eats those instead.
