   > Jimmy Rabbit looked on and ordered him about.   
   >   
   >         "There!" said Jimmy, when the wheelbarrow was full.   
      
     TOM: So, like, did Jimmy's Dad make a wheelbarrow?  Or did he buy it?  From   
   where?   
      
   > "Now we'll go home." And then, to Frisky Squirrel's surprise,   
      
    CROW: [ As Frisky ] 'Shouldn't we take the wheelbarrow with us?'   
     TOM: [ As Jimmy ] 'That's what they'll be *expecting* us to do.'   
      
   > Jimmy climbed on top of the load and sat himself down.   
   >   
   >         "What's that for?" asked Frisky.   
      
    JOEL: [ As Jimmy ] 'I'm kale!  Whoopee!'   
      
   >   
   >         "Why, to keep the vegetables from falling out!" Jimmy   
   > explained.   
      
    CROW: [ As Frisky ] 'Why aren't the vegetables in their seat belts?'   
      
   >            "You see, you don't know how to wheel a   
   > wheelbarrow.   
      
     TOM: Now, barrowing a wheelbarrow you know but this is a completely   
   different skill.   
      
   >              You'll be tipping it, first one side and then   
   > the other. And we'd have to stop every few steps and pick up   
   > a turnip or a cabbage."   
      
    JOEL: Oh, you should never pick up hitchhiking turnips.   
      
   >   
   >         "But I don't want to wheel _you_!" said Frisky.   
   > "You're too heavy!"   
      
     TOM: When the animals of Pleasant Valley stop being polite and start getting   
   wheel.   
      
   >   
   >         "Oh, very well, then!" Jimmy answered.   
      
    CROW: Very *wheel*.   
      
   >                                                "If you don't   
   > care to wheel the wheelbarrow, it's all the same to me."   
      
    JOEL: And this is how Jimmy treats his best friend.   
      
   >                                                          And   
   > he started to jump down from his seat on top of the load.   
      
    CROW: Love to sit on root vegetables!   
      
   >   
   >         "No, no!" Frisky cried. "Don't get off! I can manage   
   > all right!"   
      
    JOEL: We want to pick *you* up after tipping you out.   
      
   >             After gathering all those vegetables, he didn't   
   > want to lose the fun of pushing the wheelbarrow.   
      
     TOM: I wonder how this story plays out in _The Tale of Frisky Rabbit_.   
      
   >   
   >         "Walk fast, now!" Jimmy said. "We're late already."   
      
    CROW: Who knew rabbits were clock-watchers?

    JOEL: Well, take some medicine and then you can be a well-ustration.
