From the dragon's mouth
Once upon a time when your Grandpa John was in KL (Do you remember what KL stands for?) his friend took him to a special shop on the corner of Petaling Street where they sold Chinese herbal teas.
'Would you like some tea, John?' Grandpa's friend asked.
'Where does it come from?'
Grandpa's friend pointed to the big brass urns on the counter.
Grandpa looked closely. On the other side of each urn was a tap and do you know what the tap was made from? Yes, a dragon's head.
Your Grandad did not think the dragon looked very happy. He said 'No thank you, I won't have any tea.'
'Then would you like some herbal jelly? It's very good for you.'
'Where does it come from? Does it come from the dragon?'
'No. It's already made up in this bowl.'
'OK. I'll try it.'
'How do you like it, John'
'Mmmm, it's different. But it's OK.'
The next day, your Grandad was walking with another friend and they passed the shop again.
'Do you see those jellies, John? They're made with tortoise shell'
'Oh no!' said Grandpa. 'Now you tell me.'
The end
