And there Bunny hid.
CHAPTER XX
SPLASH RUNS AWAY
"Where is Bunny?"
"Bunny! Bunny Brown!"
"Come on in! The game is over and Charlie Star is it. He's going to
blind next time, you won't have to!"
"Come on in, Bunny Brown!"
Thus called Helen, Sue and the others who were playing the game of hide-
and-go-to-seek. For Bunny had not been found, and he had not run up to
touch "home," and be "in free."
Helen had not been able to find the little fellow, so well was he
hidden.
"I can't think where he is," she said. "I looked all over."
"But you didn't find ME!" cried Sue, clapping her hands in fun.
"No, you were so close to me, back of the lilac bush, that I never
thought of looking there," said Helen. Sue had run "in free," as soon as
Helen's back was turned.
"But where is Bunny?" everyone asked.
"Come on in!" they called.
But Bunny did not come.
"Let's all look for him," suggested Charlie Star. "Maybe he went away
off down the street, or maybe he is out in the barn."
There was a barn back of the Brown house, in which Bunny's father kept
some horses used in his business.
