And Toodle and Noodle were sorry for having taken Uncle
Wiggily's other butter to make a slippery tree slide, but they meant no
harm.
So if the pussy cat doesn't take the lollypop stick to make a mud pie,
and not give any ice cream cones to the rag doll, I'll tell you next
about Uncle Wiggily and Lulu's hat.
STORY XI
UNCLE WIGGILY AND LULU'S HAT
"Uncle Wiggily, do you want to do something for me?" asked Nurse Jane
Fuzzy Wuzzy, the muskrat lady housekeeper, of the rabbit gentleman one
day as he started out from his hollow stump bungalow to take a walk in
the woods.
"Do something for you, Nurse Jane? Why, of course, I want to," spoke
Mr. Longears. "What is it?"
"Just take this piece of pie over to Mrs. Wibblewobble, the duck lady,"
went on Miss Fuzzy Wuzzy. "I promised to let her taste how I made
apple pie out of cabbage leaves."
"And very cleverly you do it, too," said Uncle Wiggily, with a polite
bow. "I know, for I have eaten some myself. I will gladly take this
pie to Mrs. Wibblewobble," and off through the woods Uncle Wiggily
started with it.
He soon reached the duck lady's house, and Mrs. Wibblewobble was very
glad indeed to get the piece of Nurse Jane's pie.
"I'll save a bit for Lulu and Alice, my two little duck girls," said
Mrs. Wibblewobble.
"Why, aren't they home?" asked Uncle Wiggily.
