Bunny and Sue together turned the knob, and into the room stalked a funny little chap, wearing a red cap, a white coat, and blue trousers. In he stepped and began dancing around.
“There’s your surprise!” cried Daddy Brown.
CHAPTER II
PATTER’S TRICKS
Bunny Brown and his sister Sue were really surprised at Daddy Brown’s surprise. Never had they been so astonished. They watched the queer little chap with his red, white and blue suit dancing around the room.
“Who is he?” cried Bunny.
“Where did you get him?” Sue wanted to know. “Is he for us to keep?”
“Do you want to keep him?” asked Mr. Brown, laughing at the surprise of his two children.
“Oh, he’s lovely!” cried Sue.
“But who is he?” asked Bunny again.
And while the children are trying to guess I will tell my new readers a little about Bunny and Sue so they will, I hope, be better friends from knowing them better.
