                                the snake was a small, silver snake who lived on a sunny slope behind the small house where                             lived with his family.  One day,                                       decided to go exploring while                             and his family were away.                              slithered down the slope and up the back                               by the                             .      He squeezed through a small crack in the door and found himself sneaking around the kitchen.                              smelled the                             that was simmering on the                            and tried to slither up the side of the counter, but could not reach the                             .  Next,                                     snuck under the kitchen                          and found himself slipping on a bar  of                       .
