Squirrel World
“Lenox declared triumphantly once I had agreed to accompany him. “Let’s get going.”
“If you’ve waited that long, it won’t make much difference to wait another day,” I told him.
This didn’t please him at all.
“I want to be certain that PeeWee and Plush and their children arrive home safely. And I want to show them the fine new tree holes I’ve found for them to live in, too.”
“Since when have you gone into the real estate business?” asked Lenox, his voice full of disgust.
“Now listen here, Lenox,”... I said to him as patiently as I could. “If you want my company on this adventure of yours, then you’ll have to agree to my terms. I’m not ready to depart today. So if you want to go now, go. Good-bye. Have a good time.”
I had him there. Lenox talks big, but his courage is small. I knew he didn’t want to go alone. And I also knew that there were not many other squirrels who would be willing to accompany Lenox when he ventured into the unknown. They did not want to risk falling off the edge of the world by going where they had never been before.MoreLess
