onkey did it
when Herbert pulled the string, and all the boys and girls said it was
fine, and that the show was one grand affair.

The Monkey did several other tricks, and then Herbert's mother, outside
the tent, called, just like a circus vendor:

"Here's your pink lemonade! Here's your pink lemonade!"

And, as true as I'm telling you, she had made a big pitcher of sweet
lemonade for the children, and had colored it pink with strawberry
juice.

"Oh! Ah! Um!" said the boys and girls, and, really, I think the lemonade
was almost as good a part of the show as the tricks of the Monkey, the
fight of the Tin Soldiers, or the dance of the Sawdust Doll.

"Well, the show is over. I wonder what will happen next," said the Lamb
on Wheels to the Bold Tin Captain.

"Maybe the children will have another," said the Monkey. "But, while we
have the chance, I would like to talk to my friends the Sawdust Doll,
the Bold Tin Soldier, the White Rocking Horse, and all the others."

And so the toys talked among themselves, and told of their different
adventures, just as I have told you in the different books. And they all
said the Monkey was very brave to have driven away the bad Goat as he
had done.

"I'd like to know what the Calico Clown is doing all this time, since we
came away from the toy store," said the Monkey, after a while.

"So would I," put in the Sawdust Doll. "I wonder if anything has
happened to him."

And as perhaps you children are wondering the same thing, I have decided
to make the next book about that funny chap.

The volume will be called "The Story of a Calico Clown." He had many
wonderful adventures to tell about.

As for the Sawdust Doll, the Lamb on Wheels, the White Rocking Horse,
the Candy Rabbit, the Bold Tin Soldier and the Monkey on a Stick, why,
they had some strange adventures, too, and they took part in another
show. But this is all I have to tell you just now about the Monkey on a
Stick, except to say that he lived for many years with Herbert and
Madeline, and had many happy times.
