He went first, and Sue followed. But, to the surprise of the children, instead of finding themselves outside the tent, they saw that they were in a little wooden room which was built right against the tent. In fact, it was part of the tent, there being no wooden side against the back of the cloth house. Bunny and Sue had slipped underneath the tent and were in a little slab-sided room which had a door, and through the chinks and cracks of it the sunlight streamed.
"Why, we didn't get out at all!" said Sue in surprise.
"No," said Bunny. "We didn't. But maybe we can get out of this cabin."
"Look out of the door and see if there is a man there, or any dogs," suggested Sue in a whisper.
Bunny looked through one of the cracks.
"It's right near the woods," he said. "I guess we can get out if we can open the door."
He pushed on it, and so did Sue, but, to their disappointment, they found it was locked on the outside.
"There's a window," Sue said, pointing to one rather high up, on one side of the cabin. "Maybe we can open that and crawl out, Bunny."
"Yes, we could, if we had something to stand on," said the little boy. "Let's look for something."
He went over to a pile of blankets in one corner of the cabin and lifted one. As he did so he gave a cry of surprise.
