he is watching robin. But nobody
would have called Uncle Porcupine
bird. Far from it!
After a little, Mr.. Porcupine en-
tirely unrolled himself. And just as
he did, his soft neck became expos
ed, and at that very minute Tommy
Fisher jumped That bad, mean
Tommy Fisher! He thought he could
pounce on Mr.. Porcupine's throat
and suck out all of his blood for his
supper.
That would have been the end of
the poor Mr.. Porcupine if it had not
been for the brave Jimmy Coon.
If you had been there to see, you
would have thought that Jimmy Coon
jumped at the same minute Tommy
Fisher jumped. And Jimmy Coon is
rather heavy and he threw out his
little black hands and he hit Tommy
Fisher squarely in . middle and he
boxed his ears well and made him fall
in heap on the pine needles.
Wasn't that brave of Jimmy Coon?
Tommy Fisher didn't expect any
thing of the kind and it was so I'M
expected that he thought it must at
least be bear that had jumped at
him.
Jimmy Coon hit him so hard that
his eyes were full of tears so he
couldn't see wink, and he just jump
ed up and ran as fast as lightning for
home and never once looked behind
him.
Teddy Postum laughed out loud
and so did Uncle GULLY Porcupine.
Jimmy Coon was too sore from his
big jump and pounce on Tommy
Fisher to laugh much, because when
he hit Tommy Fisher he hurt his
shoulder.
But he did laugh when little Peter
Rabbit walked up and said what on
earth is the matter?" Nothing at
all Peter Rabbit" laughed Jimmy
Coon, "keep your eyes open and wake
up and hear the birds sing"

both Uncle Porcupine and Tommy
Fisher.
This was hard to do for they were
not in the same place. Uncle Por-

slowly, and Tommy Fisher was
crouched ready to spring.
