And Splash had never thought
his two little friends were anxious to get home, until Bunny had told
him so. Then he led them.
On walked Bunny Brown and his sister Sue, happy now that they were no
longer lost. Splash seemed to think he had done all that was needed, for
now he ran here, there, everywhere--across the road, back and forth,
trying to find something with which to amuse himself. He no longer
watched to see that the children followed him. He must have known that
they were on the right road at last--that he had led them there.
Bunny and Sue passed Mrs. Redden's store. In the window were the red,
blue, green, yellow and other colored toy balloons that they had set out
to buy. Bunny and Sue still each had five cents, though it was in
pennies now.
"Let's get the balloons," proposed Bunny.
"Oh, yes; let's!" agreed Sue.
So they went in and bought them, letting them float in the air, high
above their heads, by the strings to which the balloons were fastened.
Down the street came Aunt Lu.
"Well, children!" she cried.
