Bounce
the Wallaroo woke very early. He yawned and stretched, nibbled
a few grass stems and decided it was just the sort of day to visit
a friend. Bounce had many friends in Secret Gully and he wondered
who he might visit today.
Bounce hopped
into a clearing of dry leaves and stopped to have a think. Who would
he visit today? Who would it be? Would it be Nibbles the koala?
Or Misty the glider possum? Or perhaps Snuffles the bandicoot.
Bounce came
to a tree fork and stopped. He noticed some foot prints and some
leaves and dirt that had been scraped away. "I know who I can
visit," he cried, "I'll visit Snuffles the bandicoot."
Just past the rocks, Bounce found Snuffles busy scratching in the
dirt.
'Hello Snuffles',
said Bounce, 'have you had breakfast yet?' Snuffles muttered rather
impatiently that Bounce was standing on his breakfast! 'Oh sorry',
said Bounce and hopped back. 'That's OK', replied Snuffles. I'm
not hungry anyway. Let's play a game?
