Bunny Brown and His Sister Sue in the Sunny South (e-book) (used book) | bookbook.eu

Description

"Oh, Bunny! what you making such a big nose for?" "So I can hit it easier, Sue, when I peg snowballs at it." Bunny Brown and his sister Sue were in the backyard of their home, making a big man of snow. There had been quite a storm the day before, and many white flakes had fallen. As soon as the storm stopped and the weather grew warm enough, Mrs. Brown let Bunny and Sue go out to play. And of course one of the first things they did, after running about in the clean white snow, making "tracks," was to start a snow man. Bunny was working away at the face of the white chap when Sue asked him about the big nose he was making. "What'd you say you were going to do, Bunny?" asked Sue, who was digging away in the snow about where the man's legs would be when he was finished. "I said-" replied her brother, as he pressed some snow in his red-mittened hand, getting ready to plaster it on the man's funny face-"I said I was making his nose big so I could hit it easier with a snowball." "Oh, Bunny!" cried Sue, "are you going to throw snowballs at our nice snow man?" "Of course!" replied Bunny. "That's what we're making him for! I'm going to put a hat on him, too. Course a hat's easier to hit than a nose, 'specially a tall hat like the one I'm going to make.
