This is George.He was a good little monkey and always very curious.This morning, George and the man with the yellow hatwere at the train station.They were taking a trip to the country with their friend,Mrs. Needleman.But first they had to get tickets.Inside the station everyone was in a hurry.People rushed to buy newspapers to read and treats to eat.Then they rushed to catch their trains.But one little boy with a brand new toy engine was not in a hurry.Nor was the small crowd next to him.They were just standing in one spot looking up.

"Come back, son," he yelled. "That's not our train!"But it was too late.The gate locked behind him.The boy began to cry.George peeked out of his hiding place.He saw the boy's toy roll toward the tracks.The boy ran
