whirl around like that until they get

dizziness wears off they begin all

would stop and stagger and then
fall on the ground.
Right near Nancy Whirlie
stopped w1iifling iand began to act
SO dizzy that Nancy caught him.
"Oh, dont!" he shouted. Don't

So Nancy let go, and Instantly the
Whirlie sat down with a thump.
"Oh, it's so lovely!" i5heb cried
