Peter Runs Away and Back

Peter had been hard at work all
morning, much to his disgust.
Inc other boys were having a wild

very angry that he had not been al

He was going to run away. He flew
down the street but paused for breath
just opposite Daddy Mack's little
greenhouse.

Didn't you feel like running eff ?"
20, yes. 1 guess all boys do but I

What was you afraid off," asked
Peter.
We'll, o see. my mother used to
tell me a story about a little boy that
got awful mad at his mother because
she made him work and so he ran off.
He stayed in the woods a day and ate
blackberries. But when it began to
get dark and he heard a wolf howl, he
decided to go home as fast as he
could. So he crossed the little bridge
and climbed the big hill, knowing
when he got to the top he would see
the light in the kitchen and his
mother getting supper. But when Re
got to the top there WASH any light.

proceeded upstream in further search

could have staked yourselves to your

to me for you to drive a right fair

can't expect to do business with sue
