The Magic Feather Duster

The most magic feather duster was so magic that it tickled everything. So magic, in fact, that as soon as the magic feather duster started tickling, clouds of dust rose into the air and everyone was soon tickled, too. The most magic feather duster tickled this and tickled that the magic feather duster even tickled the cat ... when the cat got tickled, it started to meiouw and purr more loudly than ever. The most magic feather duster tickled the dog - it woofed so loudly that even his fleas were soon tickled as well. The most magic feather duster tickled the mouse - it giggled so much that even it's tail twitched. When the most magic feather duster tickled the rabbit - it's tail wagged - before long, everyone had tickling fits. The most magic feather duster tickled the trees - the fruit fell to the ground and every caterpillar eating them was so tickled that they soon got belly ache. The most magic feather duster tickled the grass so much that even the worms started giggling. It giggled so much it rolled over in the soil ... the most magic feather duster tickled the flowers - they laughed so much they awoke the slugs asleep on their leaves and the honey bees sneezed in clouds of pollen. The most magic feather duster tickled the hedge and before long, the sparrows in the birds' nests were twittering more than ever. The most magic feather duster tickled the hedgehogs spikes so much that they started to wobble and tell jokes. The most magic feather duster was so magic that nothing could stop it's tickling. It tickled the butterflies and the bluebottles passing by, so much that they flapped their wings even quicker than ever before. The most magic feather duster magicked about the house - the windows seemed happier and even the curtains smiled once they were tickled by the most magic feather duster. The most magic feather duster was so magic that when it tickled the vegetable rack - the potatoes and carrots didn't stop laughing for weeks. The cabbage leaves quivered, the spinach slithered. The tomatoes rolled over so much they almost ended up as ketchup and even the peas juggled about a bit more in their pods. The most magic feather duster made everything gay - it brushed away the cobwebs every single day. In the zoo, the most magic feather duster tickled every animal - of course that's why hyenas laugh like they do. After a bit of tickling with the magic feather duster, even the chimpanzees were in hysterics. The most magic feather duster was so magic that when it tickled the pots and pans in the kitchen, they jumped into the cupboards all by themselves. The most magic feather duster tickled the bottles of milk in the fridge and before long, they shook so much that they had turned into milkshake. Soon even the cheese fell apart in bits and pieces, too. The most magic feather duster tickled the ice - cubes so much that they melted. And tickled the bacon till it fried all by itself.
