Luckily the gra.s.shopper horde soon swept on to new fields. And a few warm rains, with suns.h.i.+ne sandwiched in between showers, soon turned the countryside green again. It was really _Pleasant_ Valley once more. And on fine autumn nights Kiddie Katydid's shrill music could be heard more than ever near the farmhouse.
Leaper the Locust never could hear enough of it. He was always begging Kiddie to repeat the odd ditty about the mysterious Katy--hoping, perhaps, that sometime he might learn more about her.
But Kiddie Katydid guarded his secret too well.
