It has become a habit in the Wilbur family that whenever anyone buys a new pair of shoes, they always ask for the box. This is because Tod is always glad to get some shoe boxes. He makes a number of lovely things with them. He needs the following items–poster paints, gummed paper, cardboard toilet rolls, odd beads, glue, scissors –to make his things. There are many things he makes with them. First, he makes a grand tunnel for his little brother’s wooden train-set. He makes a lovely fruit basket for his mother. Then he plans to make a garage for his brother’s little cars. He is always so busy that he does not have time to say “I am getting bored!”
