He hated tongue twisters, did she know? They were the worst. It reminded him of speaking French, because every time he tried to, he just felt tongue tied.

The only thing that helped in this situation was that she said to over-pronounce everything, which meant he could also take his time with it.

"Less-er... leath-er... nev-er... weath-er-ed... wett-er... wea-ther... bett-er."

Uh huh... yep, good. On track.

"I thought... I thought... of think-ing... of thank-ing you."

That one was just weird. So weird. It didn't make sense, NONE of it made sense.

"Can you... can a can... as a cann-er can.... can a can?"

Yeah, he was lost. WHY was this necessary? He wasn't sold on how THIS was supposed to help him with incantations and things.

And then this one... the one that had tripped him up SO MANY TIMES in third grade.

"She... sells.... sea-shells.... by the sea... shore."

He was glad that was over and done with. NOW could they to magic stuff? Please? Only... apparently not. And he might need more lollies now. Quickly, he fished out a sherbet lemon from his own and popped it in his mouth.
