“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.
