“Hello, little girl! Meow, meow! Give me a saucer of milk and a catnip mouse, because I’m a kitten!”

“You don’t fool me, you’re a dinosaur! I can see your scales.”

“No, no, see, I’m a puppy dog, see! I’ll fetch your slippers and bury my bones in your Mom’s Victory Garden and bow wow wow like I want candy!”

“Nice, try, dinosaur! I can see your sharp teeth.”

“Wait, wait, wait! I’m a parrot! I have beautiful plumage and can repeat anything you say. ‘Pretty bird, cracker, cracker'”

“You’re fifty feet long, dinosaur. You’re no parrot.”

“Sure, sure, I’m a hedgehog. I’ve got,um, quills and I burrow, maybe?”

“What?”

“Okay, fine, I’m a dinosaur. But I just wanted one of your oatmeal cookies.”

“Promise you won’t eat me?”

“Madam, I wouldn’t dream of it.”

“In that case, help your-mmph!”

“Sorry, kid. I couldn’t help it. I’m a dinosaur, after all.”
