 Early one morning, a little girl heard the birds singing, opened her eyes and squinted in the sunlight . The girl remembered she had a sweet under her pillow , and popped it in her mouth. Her mouth was filled with the sweet taste of raspberries . Suddenly the girl heard the voices.

 ‘I called the girl to breakfast with the tasty aroma of pancakes, but you, Tongue, decided to eat a raspberry-flavoured sweet instead of breakfast.'

‘Those pancakes smell yummy ! '
‘I'm glad my five sensory organs have made friends again , ' the girl said in delight.
