Certainly Wango had upset it very
much.
"He must have come in the store by the back way, when I was out hanging
up the clothes," said the candy-shop lady. "He hid under the counter
until he saw me open the showcase for you, Bunny. Then he put in his
paw, and grabbed the lollypops."
"Yes, that's what he did--I saw him," said Sue, who was now taking the
paper off her candy. But she did not put two in her mouth, at once, as
the monkey had done. Of course Sue wouldn't do anything like that.
Bunny and Sue made all the folks at home laugh, as they told of Wango's
funny tricks.
"Well, it was quite an adventure," said Aunt Lu, "wasn't it?"
"What's an ad--adventure?" Sue wanted to know.
"It's something that happens," her aunt explained.
"Then Wango must be an adventure," said Bunny, "for lots happened to
him."
It was two days after the monkey had gotten in the candy-store that
Harry Bentley, Charlie Star, Sadie West and Helen Newton came over to
play with Bunny and his sister Sue.
"What shall we play?" asked Bunny.
