Teeny-Tiny

O NCE upon a time there was a teeny-tiny woman lived in a teeny-tiny house in a teeny-tiny village. One day this teeny-tiny woman put on her teeny-tiny bonnet and went out of her teeny-tiny house to take a teeny-tiny walk.

And the teeny-tiny woman was a teeny-tiny more frightened; but she put her teeny-tiny head out of the teeny-tiny clothes and said in her loudest teeny-tiny voice:—
