The Hat Woolly and Tig

Hey, Tig!

# I love Woolly and Woolly loves me

# We've been together since we were wee

# We play hide and we play run

# We have plenty, plenty fun

# He's my spider cuddly toy

# He's my clever, woolly boy

# I love Woolly and Woolly loves me

# We've been together since we were wee. #

-Hi.

-Hello. Parcel.

-'When I was little, I got a parcel from Grandad.

'Inside the parcel was a hat. A sailor's hat.

'I loved my sailor's hat.

'Woolly liked my sailor's hat, too. I wore my sailor's hat a lot.

'One day, Grandad told Mummy that we were going on a big adventure.'

Ah, a message from Grandad.

"We're going on a big adventure down a magical river.

-"Wear your sailor's hat."

-"Wear your sailor's hat", said Grandad.

That will be cuddly.

'Grandad's big adventure was on a boat. I wore my sailor's hat.'

-Wait for me!

-'Grandad nearly missed the boat!

-'Grandad wore a sailor's hat, too.'

-Got your hat on. Come aboard.

'The big boat rumbled and rumbled.

'Off we sailed on our big adventure.'

I think you'll find that I'm the captain.

-No, I'm the captain!

-Can you say, "Aye aye, sir!"?

-Aye aye, sir!

'A man told us what everything was.'

Over on your right now, we have the London Eye.

'Grandad made everything into a big adventure.

'We saw a wheel turning high in the sky.

' "Spaceships spinning off to visit the clouds," said Grandad.

'We saw a tower of pointy glass. "Snow Queen's Palace," said Grandad.

'We saw lots of boats.

'Fast boats, slow boats and a battleship.

-'Grandad spotted a fairy tale boat.'

-Look, there's Peter Pan!

' "Look, there's Peter Pan, sailing to Never Never Land," said Grandad.

'We went under lots of bridges.

'When we went under one bridge, it got very windy.

'Whoosh!

'My sailor hat blew off! Whoosh!

'My sailor hat was gone. It floated away.'

-You can always have my hat.

-' "Have my hat," said Grandad.

-'No, I wanted MY hat.'

-We'll go to the cafe and get a cup of tea.

'My sailor hat was gone for ever.

'I was angry.

-'I wanted my hat back.'

-Well, your hat's gone, Tig.

Do you know what? I'll get you another one, will I?

-Do you want a glass of water?

-'I missed my hat.

'I loved my hat.'

Hey, Tig, when you lose something you love,

it can make you feel angry.

When you lose something for ever, it can make you feel sad, too.

But losing your hat was no-one's fault. It was the wind.

No-one knows what the wind will do next.

But hey, Tig, you are on a big adventure!

Big adventures are like the wind.

You never know what will happen next.

Your hat blowing away was the most exciting part of your adventure.

Your hat blowing away has made your adventure big.

Remember, Tig, a hat is just a thing.

You can always get another one.

What matters most is that you and Grandad

and Mummy are all having fun on your big adventure together.

-Go for it, Tig!

-'Yes, I thought, my hat was just a thing.'

You look a bit happier now.

-'Losing my hat is my adventure.'

-Tower Bridge was opened in 1894.

'Upstairs, the man was still telling us what everything was.

'The man didn't know what Woolly was.

'I didn't miss my sailor's hat any more.

'I just liked having my big adventure with my grandad,

'and I love Woolly.'
