Anticipating a tasty lunch with friends (\"berrybud jelly, oh happy belly!\"), he tumbles into more adventure than he had counted on. Leisurely strolling to lunch with his friends, the booloop narrowly escapes being lunch for a lurking wood fox. The booloop dodges her pounce by racing through brambles, skittering around sticker bushes, and vaulting across rocky terrain. Thorns clutch at his clothing and grab his hat. He arrives \"uncommonly worn and tattered and torn\" and badly in need of a rest. But when his hostess calls everyone to come to the table the booloop is happily prompt to respond.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe adventure continues in Patricia Black's second book!
