the big world let me see georgina the gymnast was amazing at gymnastics she could balance beautifully on the beam and cartwheel across the floor but her favorite thing was ribbon dancing she would dance about twirling a long satin ribbon it looked magical [Music] one day georgina was very excited because she was going to perform her ribbon dance in a special show she waited for her name to be announced ladies and gentlemen please welcome a very talented performer georgina the gymnast but just as she was ready to perform she dropped her ribbon stick and snap it
broke in half oh no what shall i do she wondered [Music] she bravely decided to dance with the broken ribbon stick but the ribbon was too tricky to control [Music] it wiggled about [Music] and then wrapped itself around her like a snake the crowd gasped georgina was in a terrible tangle luckily i was close by i had to help georgina so i thought hard and had one of my brilliant ideas here take this you can use it as a ribbon stick i whispered and i handed georgina my spoon soon georgina was twirling and swirling her
lovely satin ribbon once more it looked like she was dancing in a waterfall the crowd cheered georgina's show was a huge success little cook to the rescue once again that was a great adventure thank goodness for your spoon small georgina couldn't have told her ribbon without it but what can we cook for her hmm it has to be something twirly and spectacular yes we need to do some serious thinking [Music] i know big cook's big cookery book of course the big cookery book there are recipes for everything in there and where do we look for
