He knew they were music bags; the music bass of tiny tree frogs. They were just like Old Mr. Toad's music bag, only smaller. Those bubbles were really living bub- bles. But he had to look very hard to see the little Frogs be- hind the big bubbles. Though they were little bubbles. they were also his bubbles. That is, they were big bubbles for the size of the tiny singers.

Peter speaks truly. There in no season in all the year when joy in living must find expression quite equal to the sprlnit.

The first chance he got, Peter asked Old Mr. Toad why it was he sang so much. and why he did his singing in the water. "lt's the way I feel.” said Old Mr. Toad. "I'm singing for just one person. and here in the Smil- ing Pool is the only place I can be sure of finding her." When he had said this. Old Mr. Toad began to blow up his music bag and sin; again.

"What if she does?" asked Pet- er. "She'll know that i'm singing lust for her. and no one else." replied Old Mr. Toad.

”How will she know?” was full of questions.

"Love." replied Old Mr. Toad. ”This is a love song. and she'll know it's just for her. What is more. all my aousins are singing
