Oh Gee~ I’ll never get it. It’s ruined. Oh! Hello, girls and boys? What am I doing? Oh,
nothing really. No, I’m not unhappy. What makes you think that? No. Actually, I’m very
happy. Look at the cover of your book and you can see why. In fact, open up your book
and place the pages down in front of you so you can see the front and back cover at the
same time. And tell me what you see. That’s right! There is my birthday cake. Can you
read what is written on the cake? Happy birthday, hungry giant! Very good! Can you
read the title of today’s story? Good again. ‘The hungry giant’s birthday cake’. And as
you might have guessed, I am the hungry giant. Mrs. Giant calls me Hungry. But you’ll
find that out in a few moments. As I said, I’m not unhappy, really it’s just that well, oh, I
can’t talk about it. Let’s bring our storyteller in here to read my tale for today and as I
said it’s called ‘The hungry giant’s birthday cake’. I want you to follow along looking at
all the pictures and words in our story and listen for this sound. [Diling doong]. When
you hear it, it’s your signal to turn the page. Now, what do you say? Let’s get started.

Oh Gee~Ah~ Good. You’re back! Hopefully now, everything will get better or at least, I
hope so. Oh, I know. I have nothing to be sad about because as you’ve just read, I’ve
had a wonderful birthday, complete with birthday cake. But you see, the problem is,
well, oh never mind. Let’s get back to our story. And by the way, you are wonderful
readers. I noticed that. Boys and girls, we are going to read the story again. This time,
actors will perform the reading for us, complete with music and sound effects. I think
you’ll really like this. As the actors are performing, I want you to follow along with
them, reading as many of the words as possible. You’ll find our story may have some
new words that you haven’t read before but follow along anyway. And try the new
words right along with the actors. This time we will start from the title page of your
book, which rests right inside of the front cover. Turn there now. You’ll see two mice
looking at a piece of paper. A scroll of some kind. I can’t quite tell what it is. Can you?
Oh well. We’ll have a fun time anyway. As you re reading, listen for this sound. [Diling
doong]. And turn the page, each time you hear it. Now, from the title page, let’s begin!

Great job everyone! You read every word, didn’t you? Tremendous! Well, despite the
fact that I am just a little bit frustrated, and it is something I don’t want to get into right
now, we’re going to have a fun time. I have a special task for you to perform during the
next reading of our story. Are you ready? Here’s what we are going to do. As I’m sure
you noticed during the last reading, Mrs.Giant and I had a couple of conversations. And
there are many new words in our stories as well. I’m going to have you say what is
inside of the speech marks and also, to fill in some missing words. So, you’ll have
something to do on every page. Turn to page 13 in your book and I’ll show you an
example of what I want you to do. All right. On page 13, you’ll hear the narrator say,
‘The hungry giant rumbled and –beep(sound)-. He roared and –beep(sound)-.’’ And
you’ll fill in the words mumbled and grumbled. Next the narrator will say, ‘Finally he
said’ and then you will say what is inside of the speech marks. Like this. “Oh, all right,
But I hope there’s enough for me.”(all together). See what I mean? On some pages,
you’ll only say what is inside of the speech marks. On other pages, you’ll only fill in the
missing words. And on still other pages like page 13, you will do both. Now, I know this
may sound a little difficult but if you pay attention, I think you will do just fine. Now,
turn back to the title page and we’ll get going.

Oh, oh ,oh! What a wonderful job you all did! Excellent readers! Okay, okay. You were
right. I’m a little upset. Here’s the story. I don’t know how to make a birthday cake.
Huh? What are saying? That piece of paper on the title page is a recipe for a birthday
cake? Oh, wonderful! Now I can use it to make MY cake. Thanks boys and girls. Now
I’m all happy again and I feel like listening to a song. So long!

[Song]
Mrs.Giant said
Hungry, my dear
What would you like for your birthday this year?
A giant cherry cake, that weights a ton
Just for me I don’t want to share with anyone
Then Mrs.Giant began to make
A giant cherry birthday cake
A giant birthday cake
That weighed a ton
“How sweet!” she said
“There will be cake for everyone”
It took a mountain of flour
A hill of sugar
A pond of butter
As golden as a sun
A thousand hens gave a thousand eggs
A hundred cherry trees gave their cherries everyone
Big mixing trucks mixed the cherry cake
A big bunch of bakers began to bake
They wrote on top when the cake was done
Happy Birthday, Hungry Giant
Then it was time for fun
Then Mrs.Giant said
Hungry, my dear
The time to share your cake is here
The hungry giant said
No. It’s all for me
Mrs.Giant said
Hungry, can’t you see?
It takes a lot of sharing and preparing
And people caring to make a party fun
Friends have come from far and near
There’s plenty here. Come and share with everyone
The hungry giant said
Oh, okay. I guess this is a special day.
They all had fun
When they were done
The hungry giant said
Hey, listen everyone
It took a lot of sharing and preparing
And people carrying to make my party fun
Let’s do it all again
Tomorrow my friends
The party never ends
In fact it’s just begun
Hurray! Happy Birthday, Hungry Giant
Woo hoo!
