So Nappy’s big sister got two little pails for the berries, and a piece of cloth and a string for the bag, and they all went to the woods.
Nappy left Mut behind because he was always chasing rabbits.
Sister sat under a tree to sew the bag, and the boys started off to pick the berries.
“Let’s have a race,” said Nappy, “to see which one can fill his pail first.”
“The first one back here with a full pail wins,” said Sister.
So Nappy went one way and Tommy went another way. And there must have been more berries where Tommy went because....
Before long he was back with a pail full of berries.
“I won,” said Tommy. “Here’s your berries.”
