"Not safe!" said the squirrel, as he poked his little head out, and looked down at Tommy Smith. "Do you think I would live with all my family in a house that was not safe? I have a wife and five children, you know, and we all live here together." NOT SAFE SAID THE SQUIRREL AS HE POKED HIS LITTLE HEAD OUT AND LOOKED DOWN AT TOMMY SMITH DO YOU THINK I WOULD LIVE WITH ALL MY FAMILY IN A HOUSE THAT WAS NOT SAFE I HAVE A WIFE AND FIVE CHILDREN YOU KNOW AND WE ALL LIVE HERE TOGETHER
ouses have usually a name of some sort. So I call mine ‘Tree-tops.’ That describes it very well, because it is in a tree-top, and there are tree-tops all round it.” “But aren’t all squirrels’ nests like that?” said Tommy Smith. “Oh yes,” said the squirrel; “and they can all be called ‘Tree-tops.’ I daresay you’ve seen more than one house that was named ‘The Elms,’ or ‘The Firs,’ or ‘The Beeches.’ But now look about, and see if you can see my summer-house.” Tommy Smith looked all about near where the squirrel was sitting high up in the tree, and at last he saw something that looked like a little black ball. “Is that it?” he said. “Yes,” said the squirrel, “that’s it. Look! Now I am in it,” and he made a little spring at the ball of sticks, and disappeared inside it. The jump made the thin end of the branch swing about, and the squirrel’s summer-house swung with it, so that it looked as if it might be shaken off. “Oh, do come out,” Tommy Smith cried. “I’m sure it can’t be safe in there.” E SQUIRREL TREE TOPS IS THE NAME OF MY RESIDENCE YOU KNOW HOUSES USUALLY HAVE A NAME OF SOME SORT SO I CALL MINE TREE TOPS THAT DESCRIBES IT VERY WELL BECAUSE IT IS IN A TREE TOP AND THERE ARE TREE TOPS ALL AROUND IT BUT AREN'T ALL SQUIRRELS NESTS LIKE THAT SAID TOMMY SMITH OH YES SAID THE SQUIRREL AND THEY CAN ALL BE CALLED TREE TOPS I DARE SAY YOU'VE SEEN MORE THAN ONE HOUSE THAT WAS NAMED THE ELMS OR THE FIRS OR THE BEECHES BUT NOW LOOK ABOUT AND SEE IF YOU CAN SEE MY SUMMER HOUSE TOMMY SMITH LOOKED ALL ABOUT NEAR WHERE THE SQUIRREL WAS SITTING HIGH UP IN THE TREE AND AT LAST HE SAW SOMETHING THAT LOOKED LIKE A LITTLE BLACK BALL IS THAT IT HE SAID YES SAID THE SQUIRREL THAT'S IT LOOK NOW I AM IN IT AND HE MADE A LITTLE SPRING AT THE BALL OF STICKS AND DISAPPEARED INSIDE IT THE JUMP MADE THE THIN END OF THE BRANCH SWING ABOUT AND THE SQUIRREL'S SUMMER HOUSE SWUNG WITH IT SO THAT IT LOOKED AS IF IT MIGHT BE SHAKEN OFF OH DO COME OUT TOMMY SMITH CRIED I'M SURE IT CAN'T BE SAFE IN THERE
