My Friend Walter: Part 3

By MICHAEL MORPURGO

Will was in the bathroom. He's always down last.

Humph is our black and white sheepdog with a killer instinct for letters and postcards, and it was Hump that heard the postman first. He rose with a terrible growl from his catching position under Little Jim's high chair and fairly flew out of the kitchen door. He returned seconds later, his tail high with triumph, a postcard in his mouth, wet and punctured as usual. Mother told him to drop it. Humph looked at her blankly, pretending not to understand. He had learned that if you hold out long enough you get one of Little Jim's rusks in exchange for the post. And sure enough he got one this morning.
