“THEN HE SHALL GO.”
Bunny tried on every side to get out, but he could not. He was in a prison.
While he wondered what he should do a big boy came and looked at him.
“Hurrah!” he said.
Then big boy took up the cage and carried it off home.
He gave Bunny to his little sister Susie.
Susie was kind to Bunny. She put him in a basket with a soft bed and gave him cake and candy.
But Bunny was not happy. He was too warm in the house with his fur coat on, and he wanted to get back to his dear children. He would not play; he sat still and looked sad.
“Poor Bunny!” said Susie’s mamma; “he is used to being outdoors, and frisking about. He wants to see his little children and eat the nuts he laid up.”
