Its time he had a cut. ”“ Oh, dear, ” groaned mum. “ I dont think I want to know about this. Ask met o clean a crocodiles teeth, or
4、cut a tigers toe nails. But dont ask me to cut Kippers hair. ”Mumh ad been dreading cutting Kippers hair, ever since the last time she did it. The trouble was, Kipper madea terrible fuss. He just wouldnt keep still when Mums hampooedh is hair. And he cried, because she got a little drop of shampoo i
5、n his eye. But that was nothing, compared to the trouble she had when she tried to give him the haircut. He wiggled and jiggled and squirmed and fidgeted so that Mum was cross with him. Then as soon as he did sit still, Mumm adea littlenick on his ear with the scissors. And after that,Kipper made a
6、bigger fuss than ever.“ Surely, its not that difficult a job. ” saidDad.“Difficult?

He just needs handling the right way. ”As soon as Mumh ad gone. Dad took Kipper up to the bathroom. He started combing his hair.“Do yo
8、u know?” he said, in his jolliest voice. “ I heard of a little boy who made so much fuss when he had his hair cut that nobody was ever able to cut it.

9、cant imagine youd be as silly as that, Kipper.“Oh, ouch! ” cried Kipper. “Youre hurting. Mum never hurts like that when she combs my hair. ”“ I thought we could wash your hair, then I can give it a little cut. ” said Dad.“ Oh aw ” wailed Kipper, wiggling and squirming away. “ I dont want my hair cut
10、. ”“ This is going to be trickier than I thought. ”said Dad. “ But Ive just had a brilliant idea. ”Dad persuaded Kipper to have his hair cut at a hairdressers. He told Kipper that the hairdresser was so good at cutting hair that Kipper would really enjoy it. At first, Kipper wasnt too sure. So Dad s
11、aid, “I had my hair cut at a hairdresser when I was a little boy and I didnt make a fuss. I remember thinking it was good fun. ”“Well, all right. ” said Kipper. “ But if going to a hairdresser is such fun, why does Muma lways cut your hair? ”“She doesnt always. ” said Dad. “I tell you what, Ill have
12、 my hair cut at the same time as you. I betyou I wont make a fuss.So Dad took Kipper to a hairdresser in the high street. Its called Snips Hair Salon.
