My gracious , what a loud voice I must have had and did n't know it ! '' said Johnny Chuck , wiping the tears of laughter from his eyes . And the next day Johnny Chuck started to make a new home . Where ? Oh , that 's Johnny Chuck 's secret . And no one but jolly , round , red Mr. Sun has found it out yet . VIII JOHNNY CHUCK 'S GREAT FIGHT Johnny Chuck sat on the doorstep of his new home , looking away across the Green Meadows . Johnny Chuck felt very well satisfied with himself and with all the world . He yawned lazily and stretched and stretched and then settled himself comfortably to watch the Merry Little Breezes playing down by the Smiling Pool . By and by he saw Peter Rabbit go bobbing along down the Lone Little Path . Lipperty , lipperty , lip , went Peter Rabbit and every other jump he looked behind him . `` Now what is Peter Rabbit up to ? '' said Johnny Chuck to himself , `` and what does he keep looking behind him for ? '' Johnny Chuck sat up a little straighter to watch Peter Rabbit hop down the Lone Little Path . Then of a sudden he caught sight of something that made him sit up straighter than ever and open his eyes very wide . Something was following Peter Rabbit . Yes , Sir , something was bobbing along right at Peter Rabbit 's heels . Johnny Chuck forgot the Merry Little Breezes . He forgot how warm it was and how lazy he felt . He forgot everything else in his curiosity to learn what it could be following so closely at Peter Rabbit 's heels .
Presently Peter XXXXX stopped and sat up very straight and then -- Johnny Chuck nearly tumbled over in sheer surprise !
