The Tale of Tom Kitten (4)

The Tale of Tom Kitten (4)



THEY stopped and stood in a row, and stared up at the kittens. They had very small eyes and looked surprised.




THEN the two duck-brids, Rebeccah and Jemima Puddle-Duck, picked up the hat and tucker and put them on.


MITTENS laughed so that she fell off the wall. Moppet and Tom descended after her ; the pinafores and all the rest of Tom's clothes came off on the way down.
   " Come ! Mr. Drake Puddle-Duck, " said Moppet ー " Come and help us to dress him ! Come and button up Tom ! "






MR. DRAKE PUDDLE-DUCK advanced in a slow sideways manner, and picked up the various articles.


But he put them on himself ! They fitted him even worse than Tom Kitten.
   " It's a very fine morning ! " said Mr. Drake Puddle-Duck.
