Old Mother West Wind in "Little Joe Otter's Slippery Slide"
They were sitting side by side on the Big Rock trying to push each other off into the Smiling Pool. Round, smiling red Mr. Sun made the Green Meadows very warm indeed, and Reddy Fox, over in the tall grass, heard them splashing and shouting and having such a good time that he wished he liked the nice cool water and could swim, too..
"I've thought of something!" cried Little Joe Otter.
"What is it?" asked Billy Mink.
Little Joe Otter just looked wise and said nothing.
