As Nana walked, she met Felix the fox. Felix said, 'I will eat you!' Nana said, 'Wait until I visit my daughter and get plump. Then you can eat me.' Felix thought it was a good idea and let her go.

She kept walking and met Tony the tiger. Tony said, 'I will eat you!' Nana said, 'Wait until I get plump at my daughter's place. Then you can eat me.' Tony agreed and let her go.

Her daughter gave her a magic pumpkin. Nana climbed inside and said, 'Roll on, pumpkin, clear the way!' The pumpkin rolled down the road.
