"This was a lucky night for Peter, and he managed to save his grey pelt" (Frontispiece)
"Suddenly the ball unrolled itself, and an ugly blunt snout appeared"
"Spitting, snarling, yelling ... it charged upon the porcupines"
"Down like an avalanche he came, snatching the mink in his beak"
"He rose from the great wave, bearing aloft a glistening herring"
"Out popped the funny painted face of the badger"
"On his way to the nest, with a pouch full of fish"
"The panther crouched at the foot of the ladder ... making up its mind to climb"
