Story 347

As the Band Crooned

In June, on a sand dune, under a full moon, a band called " The

Buffoons," played a Looney tune, that made the jejune girls swoon.

Being enraptured, June forgot her lunch of prunes. It was soon

discovered by a raccoon, a long-billed loon, and a bab-boon – who all ate
them properly with a spoon.

Change: bab-boon for baboon.
