Then he took a good look at Humpty Dumpty and cried, “Get the bottle of glue! Get it quickly!”

What do you suppose Grandpa Grimes saw? He saw that Humpty Dumpty had a crack in his back!

Grandpa put the glue on the poor little fellow’s back. Then Humpty Dumpty woke up and said, “I want Ma, boo-hoo!”

Grandpa Grimes said, “If you will be still I will tell you a story.”

“A story! a story!” cried the twins together. “Do tell us a story!”

Grandpa Grimes said:

“How can I talk with nothing to eat?

Cold bread and butter would be quite a treat!”

The twins took the hint and ran about getting supper ready.
