"I'm all ready," said Peter. "I think we have had a good time. You caught a big fish and I caught a big fish and we can't eat either of them."
MAKING MOLASSES CANDY
It was a wet, rainy day. Peter and Polly had been out in the rain. It did not hurt them.
They had on rubber boots, rubber coats, and rubber caps. Peter's rubber coat was yellow. Polly's was black. They played that they were firemen.
In the afternoon, mother wished them to stay in the house.
She said, "The rain makes the snow wet. It is not nice to play in. We will have a candy party. We will make molasses candy. You may each pull some."
"I should rather do that than play out of doors," said Polly.
"So should I," said Peter.
