Merrylegs (Ch9 / Q15)

In this chapter, I think the author is trying to tell us that we should be thoughtful of other people's and creature's feelings because like Merrylegs almost all living things have feelings and get tired so you should always be considerate. In this chapter Merrylegs gives the little boys a run for their money. Merrylegs had been giving the little girls a ride and it was the boy's turn. But they didn't realize that Merrylegs had feelings or got tired so they made him go faster and faster. Finally Merrylegs had had enough and tipped them off backwards. Just goes to show you that you should never under estimate anyone.
