that he was smart enough to take care
Of his own smartness. but because of
three dreadful adventures. and the fact
that he was still alive was not because

good fortune. He had been lucky: that
was ALL The Great World, which. as
he had peeped out at it from the safety
of his home. had seemed such a wonder

place.
First he had had all his breath knocked
out of him by Bossy the Cow. 1t was an
accident. but he didn't know this. Then
he had been caught by Black Pussy and
had escaped only because the Merry Little
Breezes had helped him. He didn't know
this either. Then Miner the Mole had
almost caught him when he had taken a
nap in Miners underground house. Now
he wondered what would happen next
He had begun to think that there wasn't
any safe place anywhere for little
Meadow Mouse. He wasn't doing any

turned against him. He shivered with
fright as he wondered what he should
do next and what would happen to him
