John Goes to the City

Once up on a time there was mischievous raccoon named John. He lived with a man name
Hari. John lived with Hari in a big house in the country.
One day Hari had to go to the city for some business. He put on his tall, tall hat. Hari always
wore a tall, tall hat wherever he went.
Hari knew that if he left John alone he would most likely get into things that he shouldn't.
Hari didn't like to leave John alone and Hari knew he had to take John with him to the city.
Hari and John got in Hari's car and drove to the city. John was very excited because he hadn't
been to the big city before. The closer the car got to the city, the more exited John got.
Finally they came to the hotel. Hari told John to stay in the car. Hari talked to the man at the
front desk and he booked a room for two.
Hari went to see how John was doing. When Hari went to the car, the car was gone. Hari was
frightened. He didn't know what to do.
A policeman came walking by just at that time. Hari was happy to see him. He ran to the
policeman and said; "My car is missing and John is in it."
The policeman said, "I just saw a yellow car go rolling down the hill and there wasn't a
driver!"
Jim was worried about what had happened to John and the car. The policeman asked Hari
what had happened.
Hari thought to himself. Then he remembered that he had just had his brakes checked and
the man had said the brakes needed some work done very soon.
Just then another policeman came running. "I just saw a yellow car go down the hill." Both
the policemen and Hari went running down the hill. At the bottom they saw the car resting
on the curb.
"Whew! Are we lucky," said Hari. Hari was very happy at first but he wasn't happy very long.
He didn't see John anywhere. He looked and looked but John wasn't anywhere to be found.
Then as Hari turned around, out of the corner of his eye he saw John sitting in a tree. John
looked very scared.Hari went over to the tree to help John. Another policeman said he had seen John running
from the car after it had hit the curb.
Hari was happy that John wasn't hurt. Together they went over to see if the car was all right.
John and Hari took the car to the garage and got the car fixed. They both went to the hotel
to pick their things up.
Hari and John went back to the country. That was where John was most happy.
