own at his feet. Then he felt of his own arms and legs. He took a long breath. His face was not so red now. "I--I guess I'm all right," he answered, at last. "Well, don't climb any more trees," said Grandpa Brown. "You are too little." Bunny thought he was quite a big boy, but of course grandpa knew what was right. "I--I won't climb any more _peach_ trees," said Bunny Brown. "No, nor any other kind!" exclaimed his grandfather. "Just keep out of trees. Little boys and girls are safest on the ground. But now you had better come over where I can keep my eyes on you. I have my basket nearly filled. We'll very soon go back to the house." Bunny Brown was all right now. So he and Sue went over to the tree where grandpa was picking. They helped to fill the basket, for some of the peaches grew on branches so close to the ground that the children could reach up and pick them without any trouble.

They even slept in the big automobile van. And when Bunny and Sue reached grandpa's farm, after a two days' trip, what fun they had! You may read all about it in the book. And Bunny and Sue did more than just have fun. The children helped find grandpa's horses, that had been taken away by the Gypsies. The horses were found at the circus, where Bunny and Sue went to see the elephants, tigers, lions, camels and ponies. They also saw the men swinging on the trapeze, high up in the big tent. Bunny Brown and his sister Sue always wanted to be doing something. If it was not one thing it was another. They often
