Good-bye. Now we are in the Confectionery? Mrs. Corry and her two daughters Miss Annie and Miss Fannie are my friends.

What a surprise! Mary Poppins and the children!

What can we do for you?

We have the Gingerbread in different shapes: a man, a flower, a teapot, a horse...

... and a star, a heart, the moon, the sun.

I want a slab in the shape of a star... Look! There are golden paper stars on each slab of the Gingerbread.

What do you want to do with the golden paper stars?

Children (together). We want to keep them.

Where do you want to keep them?

I keep my golden paper stars under the pillow.

I keep my golden paper stars in the pencil-box.

I’m afraid we must be off now. Good-bye.

Good-bye. Come again soon. Come again s-o-o-n!..

Oh! Look! We are not in the shop! We are in the street!

And the shop disappeared!

Sssh! Listen! There’s somebody in the yard. Let’s look through the window.

Oh! Look! There are Mrs. Corry. Miss Annie and Miss Fannie in the yard!

Miss Fannie has two long ladders on her shoulder.

Miss Annie has a large pail with glue in one hand and a big paintbrush in the other.
