Stump electronic books

"Well how do you like this?"
"_Once a stubborn little kicker,
Kicked until she made me snicker.
If she had wings, she couldn't fly,
'Cause she'd be too stubborn to try._"
A belligerent look slowly spread over Peaches' face.
"_That's_ no po'try piece," she scoffed, "an' I don't like it at all, an'
I won't write it on my slate; not if I never learn to write anything.
Mickey-lovest, please make a _nice_ one to save for my book. It's going to
have three on ev'ry page, an' a nice piece o' sky like right up there for
backs, and mebby--mebby a cow on it!"
"Sure a cow on it," agreed Mickey. "I saw a lot to-day! I'll tell you
after supper. Gimme a little time to think. I can't do nice ones right
off."
"You did that one right off," said Peaches.
"Sure!" answered Mickey. "I was a little--a little--per_voked!_ And you
said that wasn't a _nice_ one."
"And so it wasn't!" asserted Peaches positively.
"If I have a nice one ready when I bring supper, will that do?" questioned
Mickey.
"Yes," said Peaches.
