One evening, after Uncle Wiggily, the nice bunny rabbit gentleman, had been out all day, looking in the woods for adventures, he came home to his hollow stump bungalow. He and Nurse Jane Fuzzy Wuzzy sat down to read. It was a warm night and the window was open. All of a sudden there was a loud buzzing sound in the room. "What's that?" asked Uncle Wiggily, looking over his glasses. "Oh, it's a big June Bug!" cried Nurse Jane. "The largest I have even seen! Oh, if it gets tangled in my hair I'll never get it out!"

"Nonsense, Nurse Jane! A June Bug cannot harm you," said Uncle Wiggily. But the muskrat lady grew very excited. She stood up on a chair and flapped her paper at the Bug. Uncle Wiggily took his tall silk hat in one paw and the tea strainer in the other and said he would catch the buzzing creature and let him sleep in the pansy bed. "There's no harm in him," said the bunny, "and who knows when you may want a June Bug to do you a favor?" After a while Uncle Wiggily caught the insect and gently put him to bed.

The next day, after Uncle Wiggily had been so kind to the June Bug, putting him in the pansy bed, the rabbit gentleman was out walking in the woods with Nannie and Billie Wagtail, the two goat children. "Tell us more about the funny June Bug, Uncle Wiggily," bleated Billie. "He was funny, but Nurse Jane was afraid of him," said Uncle Wiggily, laughing. "I caught him in the tea strainer and gave him some sugar. He said he would do me a favor some day, if he could. But wait a minute. That looks like danger ahead!"
