      And he sang it in the morning; he sang it in the afternoon and he sang it in the evening. You might be taking a shower, you listen out your window, what do you hear?

      The little man walking down the street singing his song:

      In the afternoon, kids are playing baseball and what do they hear?

      He sang that song so much that people forgot his name, Bill, and started calling him Mr. Wannabe Big.

      Well one day Mr. Wannabe Big woke up and said to himself, “I’m always singing about wanting to be big; it’s about time I did something about it. I know! I’ll take a walk and I’ll find some big animals. Then I can ask them what they do to get big and I can do it too.”

      Mr. Wannabe Big smiled. He liked this idea and he was ready to try it out. So he set out walking and as he walked he sang:

      And he walked and he walked and he walked until he came to a field. And in that field he saw a horse, a great big horse. He said to the horse, “Hey horse, how did you get so big?” The horse thought about it for a minute and then it said, “I eat two buckets of oats every day and then I run around this field twenty-five times; that’s what I do.”
