Bunny began to talk about his fur and whiskers.
Susan began to talk about her buttons. Grandpa Grumbles shouted,
"I'm just as happy as I can be,
The Circus life is the life for me."
Snubby Nose and Tippy Toes jumped down from the merry-go-round and
danced this way and danced that way, and for all I know they are
dancing yet!

CHAPTER I
Bunny Cotton-Tail and Susan were sitting by the fire, warming their
paws.
[Illustration: "BUNNY AND SUSAN WERE SITTING BY THE FIRE"]
"The evenings are growing cold," said Bunny Cotton-Tail. "It feels like
snow to-night."
"Oh, joy!" cried Bunny Boy, "how I do love snow!" Then he began to jump
around the room so fast that Susan was afraid he would upset the table.
"I am going to play that the sofa is a hill, and slide down!" he cried.
Then Susan said if Bunny Boy did not sit down in his little red rocking
chair and be good, she would put him in a bag!
So Bunny Boy sat down, but he began to cry. There is no telling what
would have happened just then if a soft "tap, tap," had not been heard
on the window.
Susan looked out. There stood Bushy Tail with his traveling bag in his
hand!
Susan was a little afraid to let him in, but there was nothing else to
do, so she opened the door, and whisk! bound! Bushy Tail was in,
hugging Bunny Cotton-Tail!
"Who is the youngster!" asked Bushy Tail, pointing to Bunny Boy.
