She kissed the eight babies of Unc ' Billy Possum , and they kicked off the bedclothes under which old Mrs. Possum had tucked them and scrambled out of the big hollow tree to play . She peeped in at the door of Johnny Chuck and called softly , and Johnny Chuck awoke from his long sleep and yawned and began to think about getting up . She knocked at the door of Digger the Badger , and Digger awoke . She tickled the nose of Striped Chipmunk , who was about half awake , and Striped Chipmunk sneezed and then he hopped out of bed and hurried up to his doorway to shout good morning after her , as she hurried over to see if Bobby Coon was still sleeping . Peter Rabbit followed her about . He could n't understand it at all . Peter had smiled to himself when he heard how softly she had called at the doorway of Johnny Chuck 's house , for many and many a time during the long winter Peter had stopped at Johnny Chuck 's house and shouted down the long hall at the top of his voice without once waking Johnny Chuck . Now Peter nearly tumbled over with surprise , as he heard Johnny Chuck yawn at the first low call of gentle Sister South Wind . `` How does she do it ? I do n't understand it at all , '' said Peter , as he scratched his long left ear with his long left hind leg . Gentle Sister South Wind smiled at Peter . `` There are a lot of things in this world that you will never understand , Peter Rabbit . You will just have to believe them without understanding them and be content to know that they are so , '' she said , and hurried over to the Green Forest to tell Unc ' Billy Possum that his old friend , Ol' Mistah Buzzard , was on his way up from ol' Virginny . II JOHNNY CHUCK RECEIVES CALLERS The morning after gentle Sister South Wind arrived on the Green Meadows , Peter Rabbit came hopping and skipping down the Lone Little Path from the Green Forest . Peter was happy . He did n't know why . He just was happy . It was in the air . Everybody else seemed happy , too . Peter had to stop every few minutes just to kick up his heels and try to jump over his own shadow .
He had felt just that way ever since gentle XXXXX South Wind arrived .
