And sometimes when the moon was shining he woke up in the night and would sing for very joy. Now, Peter Rabbit thought Mocker’s voice such & wonderful thing that he used to follow Mocker around just to heag him fool others by making his voice sound like theirs, It was great fun. Peter and Mocker became great friends, and so when Peter heard it whispered around that Mistah Mock- ing Bird had not come by his won- derful voice honestly, he didn't be- | Neve a word of it and was very in- dignant. Of course, he couldn't go to Mistah Mocking Bird himself and ask him, for he didn't want Mocker to know that such unkind things were being said. Finally he thought of Grandfather Frog, who is very old and very wise. “He'll know,” said Peter, as off he posted to the Smiling Pool “If you please, Grandfather Frog, how does it happen that Mocker has #uch @ Wonderful voloa, and can one whom he hears?” asked Peter. Now, Grandfather Frog was feel ing out of sorts that morning. He hadn't heard the whisper that Mis tah Mocking Bird had not come by his voice honestly, and he thought that Peter Rabbit waa asking just to hear @ story. “Chugarum! replied Grandfather Frog crossly. “Go ask Mr. Buzzard.” And that was all that Peter could get out of him. So, not knowing what else to do, off started Peter Rabbit to ask Ol Mistah Buzzard where his friend, Mistah Mocking Bird, got such & wonderful voice.
