Once there was a boy called Willy.
He had lots of pets and a grown-up sister.
Willy's sister was so grown-up that she was getting married, and Willy was going to the wedding.

"Shall I bring my pets to the wedding?" said Willy.

"No," said Willy's father.

"No," said Willy's mother.

"No," said Willy's grown-up sister.

"Better not, old chap," said Bruce, who was going to marry Willy's sister.

"Your pets might not like it."

Despite Willy’s attempt to keep his beloved pets from coming to his sister’s wedding they some how manage to find a way in to the church and the even the reception afterwards, with disastrous results!
