The Very Hungry Purple Dragon (a parody of The Very Hungry Caterpillar)

(From Ferdinand 2)

Isaac's in his crib and Nina's checking on him to make sure he's alright.

Nina: "Hey, Isaac, you want me to read The Very Hungry Purple Dragon to you?"

Isaac nods his head in response.

Nina picks up Isaac and sits right in the armchair.

Nina: "Okay, here goes."

Nina (narrating): In the light of the beautiful moon, a little dragon egg was lying right on a giant rock.

Isaac: "Big wock."

Nina (still narrating): 1 Sunday morning, the warm beautiful sun came right up and POP! outta the egg, came a little hungry purple dragon.

Nina (continued): He began looking for some good snack foods.

Nina (narrating): On Monday, he ate through 1 green apple, but he was still hungry.

Nina (still narrating): On Tuesday, he ate through 2 red pears, but he was still hungry.

Nina (narrating): On Wednesday, he ate through 3 strawberries, but he was still hungry.

Nina (still narrating): On Thursday, he ate through 4 plums, but he was still hungry."

Nina (still narrating): On Friday, he ate through 5 seedless oranges, but he was still hungry.

Nina (narrating): On Saturday, he ate through 1 piece of chocolate Mousse cake, 1 ice cream sandwich, 1 1 slice of salami, slice of provolone cheese, 1 fried pickle, 1 Tootsie Roll Pop, 1 slice of blueberry pie, 1 strawberry banana cupcake, 1 sausage patty and 1 slice of cantelope.

Nina (still narrating): That night, he had a stomach ache.

Isaac: "Uh oh."

Nina (narrating): The next day was Sunday again, the purple dragon ate through 1 nice fresh spinach leaf, and right after that, he was feeling so much better.

Nina (still narrating): Now he wasn't hungry any longer and he wasn't a little purple dragon any longer, he was a big fat purple dragon.

Nina (narrating): He entered a cave around himself, he stayed inside for more than 3 days, then he spread out his wings and-he was a full grown purple dragon."

Nina: "Wasn't that a wonderful bedtime story, Isaac?"

Isaac: [Yawning A Bit]

Nina puts Isaac gently back in his crib.

Nina: "Goodnight, dear sweet little brother."
