There were luscious pieces of car

Now there is nothing that Jerry
Muskrat likes better than carrot.
So he didn't stop to wonder how it
got there. He just reached out for
the nearest piece and ate it. Then
he reached for the next piece and
ate 1t. Then he did funny little
dance Just for JOY. When he was

Billy Mink and Bobby Coon came

They seemed very much excited.
When they saw Jerry Muskrat they
beckoned for him to come over
