Menagerie

Turtle will take my advice, he will keep out of a menagerie and live in the wide blue water where he was born.

I wouldn't have gone there again unless I had been tied and dragged there, or unless they had put those tame animals in the cages with the others.

No doubt there are some very fine, strong animals in the Menagerie, but they wouldn't be there if they could help it.

And if anybody ever invites any of you to join the Menagerie, take my advice and don't do it.

then mr dog knocked the ashes out of his pipe again and all the other deep woods people knocked the ashes out of their pipes too and filled them up fresh and one said one thing and one said another about being in a menagerie or out of it and everyone thought it would be a terrible thing to be shut up in a cage except mr possum who said he wouldn't mind it if they would let him sleep enough and give him all he could eat but that a cage without those things would be a lonesome place then mr coon said that a little adventure happened to him once which he had never mentioned before because he had never known just what to make of it but he knew now he said that he had come very near to getting into a menagerie and he would tell them just what happened the story-teller looked down at the quiet little figure in his lap the little lady's head was nestled close to his shoulder and her eyes were straining very hard to keep open i think we will save mr coon's story till another night He said.
