George’s mittens

George was a pirate, but he wasn’t a very good pirate.
His wool mittens were clipped to the sleeves of his coat so he wouldn’t keep losing them.
The mittens dangled and swung around constantly.
The other pirates made fun of this, and they laughed at George.
“You’re such a loser, George,” they said. “Why can’t you be more like a normal pirate?”
But when it got cold and they couldn’t find their own mittens, they stopped laughing.
Until George would try to light a match to fire a cannon, and he set his mittens on fire.
That was hilarious.
