Then Sue sang a little song, that Bunker had made up for her, and he played the mouth organ. And next Bunny and Sue sang together. The children thought it was fine, and the grown folks clapped their hands, and stamped with their feet, which is what people do in a real theatre when they like the play.
When Bunny and Sue made their bow, after singing the song together, they both bobbed out of sight behind the curtain.
"Is that—is that all?" asked Tommie Tracy, in his shrill little voice, from where he sat in the front row.
"Yep. That's all," answered Bunny. "The show is over, and we hope you all like it; 'specially Aunt Lu."
"Oh, I just loved it," she answered. "And to think you got it all up for me! It was just fine!"
"Do it all over again!" said Tommie. "I liked it too, but I want some more. Do it again, Bunny!"
"I—I can't," Bunny answered, as he came out from inside the box that Bunker Blue had made into a theatre. Bunny had taken off his lobster claw nose, and held it dangling from the strings by which it had been tied around his head.
Suddenly one of the planks, across two boxes, broke, and some of the boys, who had been sitting on it, fell down in a heap. But no one was hurt.
Then all the children crowded around Bunny and Sue to look at the funny things the two children were wearing—old clothes, pinned up, and with make-believe patches on them.
"Let me take your funny nose, Bunny," begged Charlie Star. "I want to see how it looks on me."
