“Yes, I know him,” said Don. “He is a comical chap; isn’t he?”
“Indeed he is,” answered Flop Ear. “He looks at you in such a funny way.”
The dog and the rabbit talked together a little longer, and then Don said:
“Well, I must go back to the house now. I’ll see you again some time, perhaps—that is, if I don’t run away, as I once did.”
“Oh, did you run away?” asked Flop Ear.
“Yes, and many things happened to me.”
“Tell me about them,” begged the funny little rabbit, who loved stories.
Don told about having gone away, but as this book is mostly about Flop Ear I’ll just say that those of you who wish to read about the kind dog may do so in the volume named “Don, a Runaway Dog; His Many Adventures.”
When Flop Ear, after listening to Don’s story, went back home, the little rabbit took with him some cabbage leaves.
