It is a fine morning. The sun is shining. The birds are singing. Dad is going to get the paper. “This is the best yard on the block,” Dad thinks. “The grass is perfect, and the garden is lush.” That is when Dad spots the hole. Next to the hole is a dome of dirt. “No, no,” he mutters, “not a mole!” “A mole will not stop at a single hole. This mole must go, and it must go now.” “Mr. Mole you have got to go now!” Dad yells. But Mr. Mole is not at home. The mole is rolling over the grass. It is headed for the garden! The mole heads under the gate. Over the hedge jumps Bandit the cat. “Go, Bandit, Go!” yells Dad. “Get that mole!” At that, Old Buster the dog wakes up. “Bark at that mole, Buster!! Send him packing!” Old Buster trots over and sniffs the mole. Both Bandit and Buster like this thing. Bandit gives it a lick. Old Buster and the mole are nose to nose.
