With no place to go and no shelter from the freezing rain, Jennefer Brisby wandered into the dense forest. She could not stay in the field because of the plow and the mud that had devoured her house. Looking for a place to stay, she found a small opening in a tree stump. Without hesitation, Jennefer bounded into the hole and made herself as comfortable as possible. It was a little too small, but she had managed to move into a comfortable position.
