      COULD

      Today, after leaving school,

      Balzo goes shopping with his Mom.

      They go into one of those stores

      where children can’t touch anything.

      Time drags on, and Balzo is

      bored stiff. And there isn’t even

      a chair to sit down on!

      But Mom is having a great time,

      touching and feeling all the pretty things.

      It’s not fair! thinks Balzo.

      And as he can’t stand it any more,

      he sits down on the floor and pretends he’s a silkworm.

      Balzo the silkworm decides to explore the store

      DONOTTOUCH in search of adventures. Of course,

      he does it by wriggling across the floor.

      Otherwise, the game wouldn’t be any fun!

      Balzo wriggles towards the counter.
