“Why, that does look like great fun!” exclaimed O. “But I can’t do
      anything that daring: I’d roll right off.”
        A and V heard this and felt sorry for O. “Let’s do something even
      more difficult,” said V to A, “and include O in it.”
        “Okay,”  replied  A.  “We  can  perform  a  balancing  act  with  O  in  the
      middle; let’s see if we can get some of these big guys to lift O up into
      position.”
        They talked to M and B and R and E, who all agreed to help. Up went
      O on top of A.
        “Wow! I hope I don’t get dizzy!” said O.
        Then  V  made  a  running  jump  and  landed  right  on  top  of  O.  They
      wobbled  precariously  for  a  few  seconds,  and  then  set  themselves
      perfectly still. It was a great success.
