Ready, O?

It's called Hey Diddle Diddle.
Hey diddle diddle, the cat and the fiddle.
The cow jumped over the moon.
The little dog-- - A cow jumped over the moon?
That is rrroyally silly!
- Hey, now I can't see!
Meow!
- Jump!
- Hey!
- Mooo!
- Prince Wednesday?
- Hoo hoo, I wasn't finished yet!
- Meow!
- Prince Wednesday, it's not OK to just take things from our friends.
- But I really want to see the cow close up!
- But then we can't see the book!
- Yeah, I wasn't done yet.
Hoo hoo!

So, O, what happened next?

(O clearing his throat) - The little dog laughed to see such a sight.
And the dish ran away with the spoon.
(kids laughing) The end.
I love that part.
- Thank you for sharing, O.
- Spoons don't have any feet!
How do they even run?
(kids laughing) That's so funny!
- I loved the part with the cat playing music, meow meow.
- Well it sounds like everyone enjoyed that story.

You can look now.
