Bunny turned, thinking it might be a goat running after his sister, as one had done, though it did not hurt Sue.
But this time it was no goat. Bunny saw a big bird, with his wings dragging along on the ground, his feathers all puffed up, and with what looked like a red tassel hanging dangling, dangling down over his beak, strutting toward Sue.
"Oh, Bunny! Bunny! What is it?" Sue cried. "Take him away!"
"It's a big turkey gobbler!" said Bunny. "I'll drive him away for you, Sue! Don't be afraid."
"Gobble—obble—obble!" cried the turkey, but of course Bunny Brown and his sister Sue did not know what the gobbler was saying.
"Oh, take him away, Bunny! Take him away!" cried the little girl, dancing up and down, her red dress fluttering in the wind.
CHAPTER XIV
LOST IN THE WOODS
Bunny Brown did not just know how he was going to drive the angry turkey gobbler away from his sister Sue. He did not stop to think of that, but, like the brave little fellow he was, he ran toward Sue, ready to do something. The gobbler was closer to Sue now.
