The Black Fawn


Jim Kjelgaard - 1958
    You aim to get out in the next hour or so?" Bud looked up to see that the bus was parked at the Bennett's drive. He squeezed past Get Umberdehoven and ran up the drive, stopping long enough to ruffle Shep's ears when he came bounding to meet him. Daydreaming about Old Yellowfoot had made him feel better.

Bud said again. "That'll be something! I'll run along and change." "Come out when you're set if you've a mind to."
