Old Mother West Wind, coming across the Green Meadows, saw Johnny
Chuck and asked him where he was going. Johnny Chuck pretended
not to hear and just walked faster.

One of the Merry Little Breezes danced along in front of him.

"Look out, Johnny Chuck, you will get lost," cried the Merry
Little Breeze then pulled Johnny's whiskers and ran away.

Higher and higher up in the sky climbed round, red Mr. Sun. Every
time Johnny Chuck looked up at him Mr. Sun winked.

"So long as I can see great round, red Mr. Sun and he winks at me
I can't be lost," thought Johnny Chuck, and trotted on looking
for clover.

By and by Johnny Chuck really did find some clover--just the
sweetest clover that grew in the Green Meadows. Johnny Chuck ate
and ate and ate and then what do you think he did? Why, he curled
right up in the nice sweet clover and went fast asleep.

Great round, red Mr. Sun kept climbing higher and higher up in
the sky, then by and by he began to go down on the other side,
and long shadows began to creep out across the Green Meadows.
Johnny Chuck didn't know anything about them: he was fast asleep.

By and by one of the Merry Little Breezes found Johnny Chuck all
curled up in a funny round ball.
