He said he wouldn't wear the boots to school and went off without them. They followed him and he had to put them on. The next day he said he wouldn't wear them. Every step he made the boots stepped after him so he had to put them on. He became more obedient every day and by the time the boots were worn out he was the most obedient boy in the village.

   The bird was in the egg,
   And the egg was in the nest,
   And the nest was in the branch,
   And the branch was on the tree,
   And the tree was in the wood,
   And the wood was in the valley.
