"Now, I will lead you to your Aunt Lettie's house," said the rabbit, "and
you won't be lost any more." So the three Wibblewobble children felt much
better and happier, and when they were almost at their aunt's house, a big
hawk swooped down out of the sky and tried to bite Lulu. But Uncle Wiggily
hit the bad bird with his barber-pole crutch, and the hawk flew away,
flopping his wings and tail.
"Oh, how good, and brave, and strong you are!" cried Lulu to Uncle
Wiggily, and then all three duck children kissed him. Soon they were at
the goat-lady's home, and Aunt Lettie was very glad to see the rabbit
gentleman, and also glad to have the children back. So she invited Uncle
Wiggily to stay to supper, and very glad he was to do so.
He also stayed all night at Aunt Lettie's house, and he had quite an
adventure, too, which I shall tell you about directly, when, in case the
fire shovel doesn't slide down hill on a cake of ice and break its roller
skates the next bedtime story will be about Uncle Wiggily and the berry
bush.
STORY XXVIII
UNCLE WIGGILY AND THE BERRY BUSH
"Well, children, I think I will soon have to be leaving you," said Uncle
Wiggily Longears one morning to the three Wibblewobbles, when he had
stayed all night at their Aunt Lettie's house.
