As it grew dark she climbed into a neighboring tree.
She was afraid to sleep in the old oak that night.
Bodo stayed on the ground beside the fire.
Sharptooth did not close her eyes.
She kept watch from a branch of the tree.
She knew the wild animals were out of their dens.
She saw their shadows among the trees.
When they saw the fire they turned and ran.
But Bodo stayed by the fire.
He was a brave boy, yet he could not sleep.
