He would n't be laughed at . He just would n't . He scampered across , grabbed a nut , and rushed back to the window-sill , where he ate the nut . It was easier to go after the second nut , and when he went for the third , he had made up his mind that it was perfectly safe in there , and so he sat up on a chair and ate it . Presently he felt quite at home , and when he had eaten all the nuts he wanted , he ran all around the room , examining all the strange things there . This was a little more than Tommy Tit could make up his mind to do . He was n't afraid to fly in for a nut and then fly out again , but he could n't feel easy inside a house like that . Of course , this made Happy Jack feel good all over . You see , he felt that now he really did have something to boast about . No one else in all the Green Forest or on the Green Meadows could say that they had been all over Farmer Brown 's boy 's room as he had . Happy Jack swelled himself out at the thought . Now everybody would say , `` What a bold fellow ! '' CHAPTER XXIII SAMMY JAY IS QUITE UPSET I know of nothing sweeter than Success to Squirrel or to man . Happy Jack . Very few people can be all puffed up with pride without showing it . Happy Jack Squirrel could n't . Just to have looked at him you would have known that he was feeling very , very good about something . When he thought no one was looking , he would actually strut . And it was all because he considered himself a very bold fellow . That was a new feeling for Happy Jack .
He knew that all his neighbors considered him rather timid , and many a time he had envied , actually envied Jimmy Skunk and Reddy Fox and Unc ' Billy Possum and even Sammy Jay because they did such bold things and had dared to visit Farmer XXXXX 's dooryard and henhouse in spite of Bowser the Hound .
