"I'm sorry," said Bunny. "I didn't know I was going to jump till I did. Did you get hurted?"
"No, but I might have. And you knocked my doll out of my lap, and maybe she's hurted."
"Oh, you can't hurt a doll!" cried Bunny. "Pooh!"
"Yes you can, too!"
"No you can't!"
The children might have gone on talking in this unpleasant way for some time, only, just then, up the side drive came Mr. Gordon's grocery wagon, with Tommie Tobin, the grocery boy, on the seat driving the horse.
"Oh, he's got things in for us!" cried Sue. "Let's go an' see what they is, Bunny. Maybe it's cookies, and we can have one. I'm hungry, and it isn't near dinner time yet. It's only cookie time."
The two children went over to the grocery wagon. Tommie Tobin jumped off the seat, and hurried into the Brown kitchen with a basket of things. He did not see Bunny and Sue, as they were on the other side of the wagon.
Just then Bunny had an idea. He often got ideas in his queer little head.
