Then whisk! Before they could wink an eyelash they were safely down the chimney. Snubby Nose cried and he screamed and he howled! Tippy Toes danced this way, and he danced that way, and said, "Oh, Grandpa Grumbles, how I enjoyed the ride!" Grandpa Grumbles said, "Off to bed when the merry winds blow, So back up the chimney old Grandpa can go."
Tippy Toes was so pleased he hugged Mother Cotton-Tail and said, "Thank you, Mother Cotton-Tail, I will go and pack my traveling bag." Papa Cotton-Tail said, "I will go with you to the turn of the road." Soon they started merrily down the road and Mother Cotton-Tail called, "Good-bye, good-bye."
They cried, "Tell us a story, please tell us a story." Snubby Nose and Tippy Toes danced this way, and that way, before the mirror and cried out together, "Who is so ugly? Nobody knows." The mirror answered, "Snubby Nose and Tippy Toes." The Seventeen Little Bears clapped their little paws and cried, "Tell it again, tell it again!"
Bunny and Susan listened. Sure enough, they heard the "rat-a-tat," of a drum. Soon they heard the Lion roar in his cage. They all went out as fast as they could. There came the Circus Cotton-Tails on parade! Snubby Nose and Tippy Toes danced in front beating a drum. Bunny and Susan and Grandpa Grumbles cried, "Hurrah, hurrah, for the Big Parade!"
Sure enough it was time for Bunnies to wake up because it was sunrise. Tippy Toes helped to get breakfast. He went to the well to draw water. He began to sing a little fairy song, "Ding, dong bell, Pussy's in the well." "Poor Pussy, I wonder if she is still in the well," he said. He peeped down to look into the well. Papa Cotton-Tail called, "Hurry, hurry, it is time for breakfast."
"You are careless folks, I do declare, To let the soot blow everywhere." Bunny Cotton-Tail coughed, and Susan sneezed, and Grandpa Grumbles said, "Into the kitchen, one, seven, three, You are as careless as can be." He made Bunny and Susan go into the kitchen; then he said to Tippy Toes, "Come, get a broom and an apron or two, We'll clean this room, that's what we'll do."
It must be lovely, Tippy, to have a sister, though I suppose you don't think as I do, for you had a sister once and now you don't care anything about her, for you fizzed at her the other day when she came in our garden. I saw you and heard you, too, and I was very much shocked. What was I talking about? Oh, yes, about so much to do. I'll have lessons to study at home after this, I suppose.
"Ha, ha, ha!" laughed Tippy Toes, "How long did he have to wear those mittens?" Grandpa Grumbles answered, "Really, now, I cannot say, But I guess it was a year and a day." Then Tippy Toes laughed so hard that he doubled right up in a little ball and rolled over and over.
Snubby Nose was so little he could not climb up into the merry-go-round without help. He cried and he screamed and he howled! Tippy Toes was so little he could not climb in either but he waited patiently below. Grandpa Grumbles saw what was the matter. He lowered his green cotton umbrella and helped Snubby Nose and Tippy Toes up into the merry-go-round. Now they were ready to start.
The door opened for him and there stood Bunny and Susan. Snubby Nose and Tippy Toes danced up to him and told him how Bushy-Tail had tried to get in. Grandpa Grumbles shook his green umbrella fiercely and said, "He will not come this way again, Either in sunshine or in rain."
