"Oh, he's trying to bite you!" exclaimed Janet.
"He is not! Top would never bite me!" declared Teddy. But he wondered what the dog was trying to do.

"What makes him act that funny way?" asked Jimmy.
"I don't know," answered Teddy.
With another bark, and wagging his tail, Top again ran up to Teddy and pulled on his coat.
"I know what it is!" exclaimed the Curlytop boy. "Something has happened, and Top has come to tell us and get us to go with him! Come on, Jimmy! Come on, Jan!"
