My kids made me read this awful Disney book called Bambi's big day about a gazillion times. It got to the point where they would hold the book and turn the pages and I would just recite. There's a page where Babi has to swim a river and it says, "Swim across the water, splash and kick, but be carful. The water is very quick." Sickening, isn't it.
Well there's a happy little frog on the page watching this, and I always used to read it, "Swim across the water, Splash and Kick, but be careful the Frog doesn't bite your, tail."
There was another one later in the book, but, fortunately, I have managed to burn it out of my mind.
