Excerpt: ...He looked this way; he looked that way. Little by little, the fear left him, and when at last he saw Peter Rabbit coming his way, he gave a little sigh of relief and ran down the tree. Peter saw him and headed straight toward him to pass the time of day. "Peter," whispered Chatterer, as Pg 118 soon as Peter was near enough to hear, "have you seen Shadow the Weasel?" It was Peter's turn to look frightened, and he hastily glanced this way and that way. "No," he replied. "Is he anywhere about here?"

"What is an outcast," demanded Peter. "Why, somebody with whom nobody else will have anything to do, stupid," Pg 120 replied Jimmy. "I thought everybody knew that."
