Read together

Once upon a time, there was a clumsy bear named Benny. One day, while he was scratching his belly, he noticed that one of his hairs was longer than the rest. So, he decided to braid it. But as he tried to tie it up, his tooth got caught in the braid and he couldn't get it loose. He tried using his hand to remove it, but his fingers were too stubby. So, he hopped on one leg, trying to reach his mouth with his foot, but ended up tripping on his knee and falling on his toe. As he rubbed his eye, Benny realized that this was going to be a long day. The End.
