His big brother had made it for him; and it had a smiling face, and a long tail that reached from the bed to the fireplace. It did not smile at Jan that morning though, but looked very sorrowful and seemed to say 'Why was I made? Not to stand in a corner, I hope!' for it had been finished for two whole days and not a breeze had blown to carry it up like a bird in the air.
