"That noise is made by a little green bug, called a katydid," Mr. Brown explained. "It looks something like a grasshopper."
"But they don't all say 'Katy did,'" objected Tom.
"No, some of them seem to say 'Katy didn't,'" agreed Mr. Brown. "Of course they don't really say those words. It only sounds as if they did. Now go to sleep. In the morning I'll show you a katydid."
Tom was not frightened any longer. He turned over and was soon sound asleep. Mr. Brown and Bunker also closed their eyes and the tent in Camp Rest-a-While was quiet once more. Bunny and Sue had not awakened.
Early the next morning, before breakfast, Tom was seen walking about among the trees of the camp. He seemed to be looking for something.
"What are you looking for?" asked Bunny.
"For Katy," Tom answered.
"There isn't any Katy with us," said Sue. "We have a cook, but her name is Mary, and she isn't here with us, anyhow. She's at home."
