Jeremy Fisher Gets Sick 3-Back to Bed

Back to Bed

Ribby was reading to Jeremy! He liked the story. But it was hard to hear. His ears felt plugged up

Jemima was still making soup. She brought a pepper to Jeremy. “ Eat this, ” she said. “ Hot peppers are good for colds. ”

Jeremy bit the hot pepper. It burned his mouth. “ Water! ” he gasped.

You don’t need water, ” Mrs. Rabbit said. “ Your house has too much water! ” She mopped up another puddle.

Jemima came over again. “ Now try some garlic, ” she said. She tried to feed some to Jeremy.
