Harry the Woodchuck's Final Stand

One day Harry the woodchuck was sitting in his log house when there came a rapping at the door, and in came Bootle the Beaver. Bootle said: "Come quick! The tree cutter people are back!"

"Oh, no!" said Harry. "We'll go stand in front of his bulldozer. That way, he can't cut down our homes!"

They ran out of the log house and Bootle led Harry to an out of the way part of the woods. Eventually, Bootle stopped in a clearing and told Harry to wait there. Harry did as he was told. Meanwhile, Bootle gathered up about seven other animals. They discussed how they hated Harry.

While Harry was preparing to face down the big, tree chompin' truck, the other animals crept up behind him... and ate him.

Moral: Not all stories have a point.
