Springtime With the Wiggles

Cleaning Up

As you can see, Sam never paid attention to what anyone wanted. Only to what she wanted.

So she was the only one enjoying herself in the factory gardens.

Sam weeded and swept and raked all the way from page 122 to a rather wordless page 127.

Meanwhile, back inside, Mike was removing cobwebs.

He sang a little song.

Ohhhhh

Cleaning up the cobwebs is what Teavees do the bestest

Bouncing high into the sky to get up where the mess is

Now I don't wanna boast but what I really must confess is

That cleaning up the cobwebs is what Teavees do the bestest!

"All together now!" he said when he finished.

The others were sulking.

"Or not. Why so glum, chums?" said Mike.

"I did not think I looked so glum" said Augustus.

"I miss my easter cookie jar" said Veruca. 

"And I especially miss ze cookies zat come vith it" said Augustus.

"And I miss my blue easter basket" said Violet.

"Aw, come on, guys! Let's get to sanitizing and nifty-ifying. We don't wanna let ol' Sam down now do we?" said Mike.

"I guess not" said Murray.

"There ya go! You can't disappoint your wife, Muzza. So let's hop to it" said Mike.

"Yeah. Let's hop to it" said Jeff.

"Just like the easter bunny" said Greg.

"Just like the easter bun... hey, Greggo! You made a funny!" said Mike.

"A bunny funny" Violet laughed.

"Did someone mention honey?" said Veruca.

"Come on, everybody! We better spring into action" said Anthony.

"You said it, Anto! We'll have this place spiffy in a jiffy!" said Mike.

A few pages later...

"Aaah-choo!" Veruca sneezed.

"Oh! Gesundheit, Veruca" said Violet.

"Ugh! This cleaning stuff sure is dirty business" said Mike.

"I'll say. Say! How you coming in there, Wiggles?" said Violet.

"Almost done! Just one more box" said Murray.

The gang was cleaning up quite a storm. 

However, when they swept the dust out of the corners, they swept it right into Veruca.

She sang about her sneezes.

Sniffly-sniff, whistly-wheeze

Here it comes, a great big sneeze

I feel it in my ears and knees 

Here it comes, a great big sneeze

I close my eyes and wiggle my nose

I itch and scratch my face

I shiver and shake down to my toes

And wave my arms all over the place

Sniffly-sniff, whistly-wheeze

Here it comes, a great big sneeze

I feel it in my ears and knees

Here it comes, a...

Great...

Big...

Veruca couldn't finish because she felt like she had to sneeze.

"Oh dear!" Violet exclaimed.

"Better hang onto something! I think she's gonna blow!" shouted Mike.

The children and Wiggles hung onto chairs and things when "AAAAAAAA-CHOOOOOO"!

Veruca sneezed the biggest sneeze that had ever been sneezed in the chocolate factory!
