Narrator: While fishing for dinner one day,

a boy caught a big letter A.

He then caught a B,

a C, D, and E,

and an F, G, H, I, J and K.

Unhappy, the boy sat and thought--

Boy: I can't eat these letters I caught!

I must catch some fish

to fill up my dish [holds up an empty bowl],

or my whole afternoon is for naught!

Narrator: But as soon as his hook hit the sea,

he caught L, M, N, O and P

and a Q, R, S, T

and a U and a V

and a W, X, Y and Z.

[Boy throws letters onto a huge pile as he catches them]

Now hungry, he stared at the group.

Then suddenly, grabbing a scoop

[Boy runs off-screen and returns with a ladle]

he had a bright notion

and cooked up a potion

[cut to Boy standing next to large pot on a fire, filled with letters; Boy holds a bowl filled with more letters in his hand]

and feasted on alphabet soup.
