Shermit the Hermit


A humorous, rhymed story about a grouch named Shermit who doesn’t like anyone. He goes off to live alone on a mountain. Unfortunately, he forgets his scissors and a comb and his red hair gets so long and tangled he can’t see where he’s going. He tried tying it back with a vine, And old Shermit he really looked fine. Then one day it broke and fell like a coat And old Shermit thought he’d gone blind! He tries chewing it off and pounding it off with rocks, but nothing works. One day he tumbles down the mountain and ends up trapped in a huge ball of his hair.
