 Old Mother West Wind had stopped to talk with the Slender Fir Tree. “I've just come across the Green Meadows,” said Old Mother West Wind, “and there I saw the Best Thing in the World.”
 
Striped Chipmunk1 was sitting under the Slender Fir Tree and he couldn't help hearing what Old Mother West Wind said. “The Best Thing in the World—now what can that be?” thought Striped Chipmunk. “Why, it must be heaps and heaps of nuts and acorns2! I'll go and find it.”
 
So Striped Chipmunk started down the Lone3 Little Path through the wood as fast as he could run. Pretty soon he met Peter Rabbit.
 
“Where are you going in such a hurry, Striped Chipmunk?” asked Peter Rabbit.
 
“Down in the Green Meadows to find the Best Thing in the World,” replied Striped Chipmunk, and ran faster.
 
“The Best Thing in the World,” said Peter Rabbit. “Why, that must be great piles of carrots and cabbage! I think I'll go and find it.”
 
So Peter Rabbit started down the Lone Little Path through the wood as fast as he could go after Striped Chipmunk.
 
As they passed the great hollow tree Bobby Coon put his head out. “Where are you going in such a hurry?” asked Bobby Coon.
 
“Down in the Green Meadows to find the Best Thing in the World!” shouted Striped Chipmunk and Peter Rabbit, and both began to run faster.
 
“The Best Thing in the World,” said Bobby Coon to himself. “Why, that must be a whole field of sweet milky4 corn. I think I'll go and find it.”
 
So Bobby Coon climbed down out of the great hollow tree and started down the Lone Little Path through the wood as fast as he could go after Striped Chipmunk and Peter Rabbit, for there is nothing that Bobby Coon likes to eat so well as sweet milky corn.
 
At the edge of the wood they met Jimmy Skunk5.
 
“Where are you going in such a hurry?” asked Jimmy Skunk.
