Clop! Clop!
Thump! Thump!
The box bumped up and down.
"Where are we going?" Mittens whispered.
"I don't know," Tom whispered back.
At last the box stopped.
The kittens peeked out.
"We are in town!" Tom said.
He jumped out of the box.
Tom ran down the road.
His sisters ran after him.
The town was very busy.
People rushed past the kittens.
Wagons and carts drove by.
The town was noisy too.
Bells rang and people laughed.
Dogs barked and doors banged.
"I'm scared," Mittens whispered.
The kittens ran under a bench.
"It's quiet here," Moppet said.
"Let's rest."
"I like this town," Tom said.
"But it's too busy and noisy."
Mittens nodded.
"I want to go home," she said.
The kittens looked one way.
Then they looked another way.
But all the roads looked the same.
Mittens started to cry.
"This is terrible!" she said.
"We are lost!"
