“ Susie said: “I’m afraid so, too, Uncle Wiggily. Please give me a hoop lesson.”
3. “This is the way to do it, Susie,” said Uncle Wiggily, when he had untangled himself from the wooden ring. “It is easy once you learn how. Drive your hoop straight, and, when you see some one coming, steer out of their way.” Susie trotted beside Uncle Wiggily. “Some one is coming now,” said the rabbit girl. “It’s Aunt Lettie, the goat. I hope you don’t tangle her in the hoop, Uncle Wiggily!”
4. “Oh, no danger, Susie!” laughed the bunny. “I know how to manage a rolling hoop. ”

“ The worst is over. I beg your pardon, Aunt Lettie.” Then the bunny gentleman and little girl helped the goat lady up. “You don’t want me to drive a hoop that way, do you?” asked Susie. “No, I’ll give you a new lesson.”
6. “Oh, you’re going fine now, Uncle Wiggily!” cried Susie, as she ran along beside the bunny gentleman, who was once more driving the hoop. “Hush, Susie, my dear, please don’t say a word,” begged the bunny in a whisper. “Something may happen.” Aunt Lettie hurried away. “I hope it doesn’t happen to me,” she bleated. Susie tried not to laugh. ”

6. When the Bushy Bear was dressed in some of his wife’s old clothes, he went out and stood in the road, turning his back. “You look just like a poor old woman!” whispered the hidden Bob Cat. And when the bunny and Uncle Butter came along with the bob sled, the rabbit said: “Look, there’s another poor, old, tired lady. We’ll give her a ride. We must be kind to the old folks. ”
