Just then in came her mother from the kitchen where she had been baking
more cakes for her little boy.
"Oh, it's you, is it, Sue?" asked Mrs. Brown. "Do you want some more
breakfast?"
"No, thank you, Mother. I had mine. I just came in to tell Bunny it's
snowing. And we can have a lot of fun, can't we?"
"Well, you children do manage to have a lot of fun, one way or another,"
said Mrs. Brown, with a smile.
"Is it snowing, Mother?" asked Bunny, too excited now to want to finish
his breakfast.
"Yes, it really is," answered Mrs. Brown. "I was so busy getting enough
cakes baked for you that I didn't notice the snow much. But, as Sue
says, it is coming down quite fast."
"Hurray!" cried Bunny, even as Sue had done. "Do you think there will be
lots of the snow?"
"Well, it looks as though there might be quite a storm for the first
snow of the season," replied the mother of Bunny Brown and his sister
Sue. "It's a bit early this year, too. It's almost two weeks until
Thanksgiving and here it is snowing. I'm afraid we're going to have a
hard winter."
"With lots of snow and ice, Mother?" asked Bunny.
"Yes. And with cold weather that isn't good for poor folks."
"Oh, I'm glad!" cried Bunny. "Not about the poor folks, though," he
added quickly, as he saw his mother look at him in surprise.
