As they rowed off, Hare spotted Goose.
"
Upside down as usual," remarked Hare.
"
Hey, Goose! Turn down-side-up!" Goose
popped up, her mouth full of river weed.
"
This is Smudge," said Hare.
"
Hello, Fudge," said Goose.
"
Smudge,
not Fudge," corrected Hare. "It's
her birthday and this is her boat. She's got
a tree house and we're all going back
there to play," said Hare. "Come on!
Goose followed Smudge and Hare.
"
Goose, have you seen Mole?" Hare
called. But before she could answer, a
nose appeared from an earthy volcano on
the bank. "Oh, look, there he is!" Hare
cried.
