Of difference 10 me whether or not
you are gobbed up by old Granny
Fox, because YOU know don't
eat little Possums. But 1t does
make a great big difference 10 you.
Now tell me- doesn't it,"
The three little Possums fidgeted
about and finally Grumpy admitted
that il did.
"Of course it does" continued
Sammy. Now | know old Granny
Fox and her ways. She isn't bit
interested in showing you the won
derful things of the Great World 4.
All she is interested in is a good
meal of young Possums. II she could
climb as you can she wouldn't have
bothered 10 talk TO you. But she
can't climb, and 10 catch you she
has got 20 get you on the ground
She trusted 10 her smooth tongue
and her promises 10 do that. AS
safe from her and from Reddy Fox
and from Old Man Coyote. You
take my advice and don't listen TO

me, but your common sense will tell
you that by needing my advice you
are at least safe. while IL you do
as Granny Fox wants you 10 you
will not be safe II she Is what
tell you she is, and you'll find that
she is. My advice doesn't cost you
anything, but failure TO heed II lie

II over And without waiting for
