Freddo

It is a nice cool morning with the sun behind the clouds so the twins, Len and Larry, decide to go the Tree Hut Park to practise kicking their football.  They actually live next to Tree Hut Park so it doesn’t take them long to hop to the park.

 

They are kicking the football around near the tree hut when they hear some moaning in a croaky voice.Larry asks Len if he can hear the moaning. Len replies he can and together they decide to climb to the tree hut to see if anyone is inside.

 Inside the tree hut is Freddo who looks very distressed.
 

Freddo croaks to Len that he has been surfing at a beach and now his skin feels like it is burning, please help me. Len and Larry offer to carry him to K. C. Bunnyborough Hospital.
“Oh! No!” He croaks, “I am not going to a rabbit hospital.”

Larry replies that he will go and find Mr Kiwi who makes all sorts of medicines and lotions, perhaps he will have something that will help.

Larry finds Mr Kiwi and tells him about Freddo’s burning skin. Mr Kiwi says he will come to the tree hut to look at Freddo and will bring some of his special invented lotions with him.

 

 

When Mr Kiwi arrives at Tree Hut Park and Freddo is grasping for breath and is in a lot of pain. Mr Kiwi asks Len to go home and get a wet blanket to put over Freddo.

Mr Kiwi gives Freddo a bottle of brown liquid and tells Freddo to have a mouth full three times a day and to stay under the wet blanket. Mrs Lemon comes over and invites Freddo to stay with them in her house, but he refuses to move out of the tree hut.
 

Three days later Freddo has recovered so much so that he is ready to kick the football around with Len and Larry. Freddo asks Len and Larry to wait for him while he jumps away out of sight.

 

 

Freddo comes back from some distant bushes driving his pedal car.Wow! The twins are impressed.Freddo drives in front of their house to show Mrs Lemon and their younger brother, Les his pedal car.Freddo asks Mrs Lemon if he can take Len and Larry to a concrete area many miles away where they can ride skateboards and scooters. Mrs Lemon gives her permission for them to go.

Freddo, Len and Larry have a lot of fun playing on the concrete area.Too soon it is time for Freddo to take Len and Larry home.He thanks them enormously for getting Mr Kiwi to cure him and says good bye to the family and goes and finds Mr Kiwi to thank before he goes on his merry way.

 

Three weeks later Mrs Lemon receives an Advent Calendar from Freddo in the post. Hmm, Mrs Lemon says as she looks at it she doesn’t like the picture that is used because it is not of the real reason to celebrate Christmas. Len, Larry and Les gather around her while she explains the real reason why some people celebrate Christmas. They will take it in turns each day to eat the chocolates when they open the (dates) numbers!
