The Story of a White Rocking Horse by Laura Lee Hope

And to his own great surprise the Jack was taken down with the White
Rocking Horse.

As for the Rocking Horse, so many things happened at once that he
hardly knew where one began and the other left off. He saw some
gleaming lights and red, blue, green and golden-yellow balls that
seemed brighter than the sun. He saw a big, green tree. He saw many
toys scattered under it. And one, in particular, made him open his
eyes in wonder.

For there, sitting on the carpet near him, was the Sawdust Doll! The
very-same Sawdust Doll who had lived in the toy store with him!




CHAPTER V

A NIGHT RIDE


The White Rocking Horse wanted to gallop across the room and back,
because he felt so happy at seeing the Sawdust Doll again. As for the
Sawdust Doll, she wanted to stand up and clap her hands, as the Calico
Clown used to clap his cymbals together. But neither of the toys dared
do anything, because, in the same room with them, were the father and
mother of Dick and Dorothy. And the toys, as I told you, never moved
or spoke when any one was near them.
