Flopsy hopped up to her and said, “I knew you weren’t doing all those things on purpose. Thank you for saving Blacky and being my friend.”

“What were you doing in there?” asked Flopsy.
“Don’t knock it till you try it. I’ve never slept so well in all my life!” Everyone laughed.
Ptooie and his parents waved and set off back to the city of Down Undah. Flopsy and all the animals waved until they were out of sight. No longer would they think of Ptooie as a destructive giant. She would only be remembered as a hero.
The end.
