George sat down.
He had been a bad little monkey.
Why was he so curious?
Why did he let the bunny go?
Now he could not put it back into the bunny house where it could be with Mother Bunny.
Mother Bunny—George looked up.
Why, that was it!
Mother Bunny could help him!
Bad monkey
George got up.
He had to have some string.
Maybe there was some in the garden.
Yes, there was a string and a good one too.
George took the string and went back to the bunny house.
Mother Bunny was at the door.
George let her out and put the string on her.
And Mother Bunny knew what to do.
Away she went with her head down and her ears up.
All George could do was hold the string and run after her.
And then Mother Bunny sat down.
She saw something, and George saw it too.
Something white that looked like a tail, like the tail of the baby bunny.
And that is what it was!
But where was the rest of the bunny?
It was down in a hole.
A bunny likes to dig a hole and then go down and live in it.
But this bunny was too little to live in a hole.
It should live in a bunny house.
So George got hold of the little white tail and pulled the baby bunny out.
Then they all ran back to the bunny house.
George did not have to put a string on the baby bunny.
It ran after its mother all the way home.
George took the string off Mother Bunny and helped them back into the house.
Then Mother Bunny and all the little ones lay down to sleep.
George looked at them.
It was good to see the baby bunny back where it should be.
And now George would go back to where he should be.
When he came to the wall, he could see something funny in back of it.
George got up on the wall to find out what it was.
