Who is hiding? Is it a little mouse? Is it a hopping bunny? No. It is Barnaby.
Barnaby is fuzzy. Barnaby is blue. He has soft paws. He lives in a cozy, warm den.
Up high, Stella plays. *Thump, thump, thump.* Her feet go up and down.
Barnaby hears the thumps. The thumps are loud. Barnaby covers his ears. He is shy. But he wants to say hello.
Barnaby finds a gift. It is a red berry. He pushes it through a little hole. *Push, push, push.* Up it goes.
Stella sees the berry. It is smooth. She smiles. "Hello, berry," she says.
