"I wish we had a kite," said Bunny. "I should like to see it sail up in the air and over the trees."
"I can make a kite," said Bobtail.
"How, how?" asked both the other little rabbits together.
"See this big oak leaf," said Bobtail. "This would make a good kite, if we had a long string."
"I know where there is a string," said Bunny. "One of the boys dropped it out of his pocket the other day.
"It is on the ground, under the pine tree. I will get it for you."
So Bunny hopped off, and in a minute he was back with the long string.
Bobtail tied the string to the short stem of the oak leaf.
"Let me fly the kite," begged Bunny.
"No, let me," said Billy.
