“One lit right upon my nose!” Lit
tle Ned Gnome laughed, but though
I could not see him, I felt him the
moment he lit and knocked him off
with my hat! Whatever made the
Witches’ magical, invisible bumble
bees quit chasing me and start chas
ing Miss Wanda Witch %" he asked.
“Well, little New Gnome, I will tell
i you," Raggedy Ann said. "Wanda
Witch came hopping through the
bushes and caught me the moment
the invislble*bumble bees chased you
away, and Wanda Witch tried to
catch Raggedy Andy. But Raggedy
Andy skipped out of her way,
and I pulled the other way as
hard a? I could. Then Raggedy Andy
said. "I wish your magical invisible
bumble bees would quit chasing little
Ned Gnome and would chase you,
Miss Wanda Witch." Wanda Witch
did not believe they would do it!"
Raggedy Andy laughed, "And-she had
just started pulling Raggedy Ann to
her house when alon^ came her own
Invisible bumble bees and chased
her! She dropped Raggedy Ann in
a hurry!" Raggedy Andy laughed.
"Maybe we had bettor start to
run and get as far away from the
two mean little Witches as we can!"
Little Ned Gnome said, “I do not
enjoy having them make magical in
visible bumble bees chase me!*'
“Let us go and visit Betsy Bon
net String!” Raggedy Ann suggested,
"Betsy Bonnet String is very nice!”
So the Raggedys and little Ned
Gnome started off through the deep
deep woods to visit Betsy Bonnet
String, but they had not gone far
before along came Winda Witch,
sailing after them upon her flying
broom.
