All a bit fishy

The local Guides and Scouts recently had a
white elephant hunt, or and 'Emu hunt'
around the streets of Elwood.
One of the leaders came around a week before
and wrote up a series of directions and puzzles
for the kids to follow and figure out.
She was tired and over it by the time she reached the store.
" Can I write find: 'Eggs' spelt incorrectly?" She asked
looking in the window of the stote.
We have three wooden letters we found in an old sign factory
E. G. S

People always knock on the window and say," You spelt Eggs wrong!"
It stands for 'Elwood General Store'.
I told the scout mistress, she said;
" One of them will get that and realize my mistake, they're pretty bright-
Ohhhhh What can I write?"
I looked at the window, Jacq had placed everything fishy in the store
into the shape of a fish. A few of her recycled fabric door snakes were curled
up around the canned fish.
" Why don't you write, What has fish and snakes in the window
but is not a pet shop..?"
And so she did, and on Wednesday the Guides and Scouts went on their hunt
I wonder if they eventually found their Emu?

Either way we had plenty of organic chocolate coated licorice waiting for them.
