‘The Sugar Monsters’
By SARAH LIVINGSTON, AGED It, of Redcliffs School The sugar monster is a brute, It doesn’t come when you eat fruit. It comes when-you eat tons of lollies, Filling up those dairy trolleys. It eats away at all your teeth, After 10 minutes it’s underneath. When it gets there -
You’d better beware! For then you see it ' make a hole. Like one of those that digs — a mole. Then the dentist pulls it out v With a yell and a scream and a mighty shout. And that’s why the sugar monster is a brute, You’d be much better .off If you eat FRUIT!
