The Lamington Man

‘I’ve outrun Matilda’s kitchen cat, At only half speed, I can do that. So run, run as fast as you can. You can’t catch me. I’m the lamington man.’ The freshly-baked lamington man leaps right off the baking tray and out of cook Matilda’s house! A fast little fella, he challenges all who cross his path to a running chase but, alas, all are too slow to catch him! Soon the lamington man comes across a cunning crocodile who tries to trick the cocky cake. A classic tale with a satisfying conclusion.
