Book II: Embrace My Innocence
Chapter III: Hearts of Hope


Elmo’s Balloon of Words

Elmo popped a big balloon
Rainbows are very beautiful
Birds eat Bugs
The Sky is blue
White and black are not colours
Triangles are shapes
Blue Jays are a baseball team
Red and blue make purple
Butterflies are pretty and colourful
Grover and Elmo are best of friends and buddies
Except they are different colours

It is good to be happy
and glad and proud
and joyful.
