sit still, but must scamper over to the place Happy Jack Squirrel told
him about.
"You'd better be careful, Peter Rabbit; they're very sharp," shouted
Happy Jack.
But as usual, Peter was in too much of a hurry to heed what was said
to him. Lipperty-lipperty-lip, lipperty-lipperty-lip, went Peter
Rabbit through the woods, as fast as his long legs would take him.
Then suddenly he squealed and sat down to nurse one of his feet. But
he was up again in a flash with another squeal louder than before.

told him about. One was sticking in his foot, and one was in the white
patch on the seat of his trousers.
