1. I have just had a letter from Mr Tom Cat, a Jungle friend of mine, and he says he has had some fine fun with those funny Jungle School boys. The boys were all out for a quiet afternoon walk, dressed in their best clothes, and when Mr Cat passed by on a cart he heard the Boars call our. “We are not going to walk all the way back to school while there is a chance of a ride. Ta-ta, you chap : there’s no more room for you!” And then the cheeky young porkers climbed on to the hack of his cart without asking any permission.

2. “Oh, oh," said Mr Tom to himself. “I’ve heard about you two young gentlemen, and you are not at all the sort of hoys I like.” Then he quietly turned on the water tap, and Well, you can see in the picture how surprised those Boars were when they suddenly found themselves soaked through to the skin. “Hip, hip, hooray!” cried Jumbo and all the others. “Serves you right! We knew it was a water cart, and we were waiting to see you have a bath!"
