Chapter 1

Doubtless the Confident Baby Turtle

Doubtless at Home

One beautiful cool morning in the misty air of the woods is a baby turtle named Doubtless, trying her first steps to walk down a pathway lined with white rocks and wild flowers. Where is everybody? Maybe I can look for George, my dear friend. He will show me where everyone is. So Doubtless, as her sister calls her, continued on to find George, the teen hare, who loves to hop down the riverside digging for wild carrots.

Looking for his friend George

Soon enough she found bed of carrot leaves along the Riverside. Right behind the huge tree one can hear crunchy noises and lo and behold she finds George digging hard and splashing muddy soil all around.

Hi! George, what are you doing?

Hi, Doubtless. I am just getting ready for a picnic this afternoon. I’m gathering enough for all our buddies. Are you coming with us?

I don’t know if my folks will let me.

The Ride Back Home

I could not find my family. I was asleep a long time and every one was gone, Doubtless said.

Your sister is in school and your mom is probably preparing your lunch. Your dad’s at work. Did you look at the backyard?
