It made him feel quite put out . He actually tried to make himself feel that it was all the fault of Tommy Tit , and that he wanted to get even with him . He thought about it all the rest of the day , and just before he fell asleep that night an idea came to him . `` I know what I 'll do ! I 'll dare Tommy to go as far inside Farmer Brown 's house as I do ! '' he exclaimed , and went to sleep to dream that he was the boldest , bravest squirrel that ever lived . The next morning when he reached the tree close by Farmer Brown 's house , he found Tommy Tit already there , flitting about impatiently and calling his loudest , which was n't very loud , for you know Tommy is a very little fellow , and his voice is not very loud . But he was doing his best to call Farmer Brown 's boy . You see , there was n't a single nut on the window-sill , and the window was closed . Pretty soon Farmer Brown 's boy came to the window and opened it . But he did n't put out any nuts . Tommy Tit at once flew over to the sill , and to show that he was just as bold , Happy Jack followed . Looking inside , they saw Farmer Brown 's boy standing in the middle of the room , holding out a dish of nuts and smiling at them . This was the chance Happy Jack wanted to try the plan he had thought of the night before . `` I dare you to go way in there and get a nut , '' said he to Tommy Tit . He hoped that Tommy would be afraid . But Tommy was n't anything of the kind . `` Dee , dee , dee ! Come on ! '' he cried , and flitted over and helped himself to a cracked nut and was back with it before Happy Jack could make up his mind to jump down inside .
Of course now XXXXX he had dared Tommy Tit , and Tommy had taken the dare , he just had to do it too .
