"No, he won't. Calves haven't any teeth. They only eat milk, and they
don't have to chew that. They don't get teeth until they're big.

"I'm not afraid," said Bunny Brown, as he climbed over into the calf's
pen. Sue stood as near as she could, so Bunny could dip his brush in the
green paint. Bunny was careful not to get any on his own suit, or on
Sue's dress. That is he was as careful as any small boy could be. But,
even then, he did splash some of the paint on himself and on Sue. But
the children did not think of this at the time. They were so busy having
fun, turning a calf into a circus zebra.

Bunny had put a number of green stripes on one side of the calf, and now
he was ready to put some on the other. But the calf did not stand as
still with Bunny inside the stall with her, as when he had been outside.
The calf seemed frightened.

"Baa-a-a-a-a!" it cried. "Baa-a-a-a-a! Baa-a-a-a-a!"

And the old mother cow cried:

"Moo! Moo! Moo!"

She did not like to see Bunny so close to her baby calf, I guess. But
the old cow did not try to hook Bunny with her horns. She only looked at
him with her big, brown eyes, and tried to reach her tongue over and
"kiss" the calf, as Sue called it.
