Not the kind of oranges you eat, you know, but the name of a place, and a very nice place, too. In spite of her strange name, and the fact that she was a muskrat, Jane Fuzzy-Wuzzy was a very good cook and quite kind to the children bunnies, Sammie and Susie.
You can just imagine how excited Susie and her mamma and papa and Nurse Jane Fuzzy-Wuzzy, the muskrat, were when Sammie got home and told about the bad fox who had been changed into a country village. Uncle Wiggily Longears was surprised, too. He said: "My, it does seem to me that there are strange goings on in these woods. There never used to be any fairies here. I wonder where they come from?"
But they did not. Instead, they went into the darkest part of the underground house. Nurse Jane Fuzzy-Wuzzy went bravely up to the ferret. "Now you get right out of this house," she said. "We don't want you here!" The ferret said nothing, but kept crawling all around, looking for the rabbits.
So when she got home to the burrow that afternoon, and Nurse Jane Fuzzy-Wuzzy had given her a bit of chocolate-covered carrot, Uncle Wiggily Longears noticed that the little rabbit girl looked rather sad. "What is the matter, Susie?" he asked. "I can't jump rope," she answered, "and all the other rabbit girls can." "Never mind," said Uncle Wiggily, "I will show you how. Come with me. Oh, dear!
“Oh, indeed, I’ll go for you, mother, right away!” cried Bully, quickly, for he was very fond of cocoanut cake. But I guess he would have gone to the store anyhow, even if his mamma had only wanted vinegar, or lemons, or a yeast cake. So off he started, whistling a little tune about a fuzzy-wuzzy pussy cat, who drank a lot of milk and had a crinkly Sunday dress, made out of yellow silk.
So they didn't get a whipping, and very luckily there was enough more stuff in the burrow to make more Hot Cross Buns. So Jane Fuzzy-Wuzzy and Susie mixed up some, and these were soon baking in the oven. And, oh, how good they smelled, and they tasted as good as they smelled, each one with a maple-sugar cross on.
So Susie got an old tomato can, and put it under the place where the juice was running out, and pretty soon, not so very long, the can was full. By that time Sammie and Jane Fuzzy-Wuzzy had a fire built. Then they hung the can of sap over the fire, and it boiled, and it boiled, and it boiled.
I'll set the dishes out for you." Then Sammie and Bully felt very good, for it's lots of fun to clean out the cake dishes when any one is baking, especially when Hot Cross Buns are being made. So the little boy rabbit and the little frog, who was such a good jumper, played marbles under the trees in the big woods. Then Susie and Nurse Jane Fuzzy-Wuzzy went to work in the kitchen.
Buddy Pigg passed around the ice cream, and just as he was handing a plate of it to Jennie Chipmunk it slipped I mean the ice cream slipped and went right into Uncle Butter's lap. But the old goat didn't care a bit. He said it reminded him of a pail of paste, and he ate the ice cream, and Nurse Jane Fuzzy-Wuzzy got Jennie some more.
Just as Susie finished doing "three slow, pepper," Nurse Jane Fuzzy-Wuzzy came to the door of the burrow, and called: "Sammie, your mamma wants you." "What does she want?" he asked. "She wants you to go to the drug store and get some stuff to color the Easter eggs with. Hurry, please, because she has lots to do." "May we help color them?" asked Susie, hanging up her grapevine rope on a low bush.
