Whitefoot The Wood Mouse in "Farmer Brown's Boy Becomes Acquainted"

One day Farmer Brown's boy scattered some particularly delicious crumbs.
Then, instead of going out, he sat down on a bench and kept perfectly still. Farmer Brown and Bowser the Hound went out.
Of course Whitefoot heard them go out, and right away he poked his little head out from under the pile of wood to see if the way was clear.
Farmer Brown's boy sat there right in plain sight, but Whitefoot didn't see him.
