“Come on!” he cried to his brother and sister. “Help me det out!”
“Of course we’ll help you, dear!” said Janet. “But how did you get caught that way?”
“I was playin’ peek-a-boo wif a chicken.”
“Peek-a-boo with a chicken?” echoed Ted.
“Yeppie! He chicken, he comed in de auto house, an’ he looked at me froo de horsie wagon wheel, an’ I looked at him, an’ I did stick my head froo de spokes, I did, an’ I did holler ‘peek-a-boo!’ an’ den I touldn’t det out!”
“Well, I should say you couldn’t!” cried Janet. “Take hold of him, Teddy, and push him out.”
“We can’t push him out, we’ve got to pull him!” decided Teddy; after looking at the way his baby brother was caught.
“No, he’s got to be pushed!” insisted Janet.
“Pulled!” cried Teddy.
“Oh, det me out! Det me out!” wailed Trouble.
