Piggy and I were playing catch one day when a little snake wiggled up and asked if he could play too. Although we are always ready to make new friends, Piggy and I realized that we had a problem here.

I looked at Piggy and he looked at me. Then we looked down at the snake. 'You do not have arms,' Piggy said. The snake replied that he knew he didn't have arms but he'd still like to try to play catch.

Good grief, this was going to be interesting! Well, we threw the ball to the snake and BONK! It bounced off his head. Oops, that's not a good thing.

Gosh, this isn't working! Now what do we do? Next, we tried throwing smaller balls, a whole bunch of them, to the snake. Nope, that wasn't a good idea either!

You'd think we'd give up at this point, but then Piggy came up with a really cool idea. I won't tell you what it is, you'll have to read our book, but I bet you really laugh or at least smile when you see what Piggy's solution is!
