Sniff! I’ve found Danny!” gasped Josh. He landed under the picnic table in a spray of dust and grass seeds. “Good!” said Sniff. “Not good!” said Josh. “He’s in a jam! Worse … he’s in a jam jar. He’s stuck inside it with the lid on. I can’t get it off. And he could change back into being a boy at any moment and then … and then …” “Squelch,” shuddered Scratch. Sniff elbowed him in his furry chest. She glared at him. “How can we get it open?” asked Josh. “Well,” said Scratch. “I don’t know if we can open it. But we can certainly knock it off the shelf and smash it. Would that help?” Josh stared at them. “It’s not the best way out,” he said. “But it’s better than nothing.” He just hoped that Danny wouldn’t get cut in half by shattered glass. “No time to lose then,” said Scratch. He and Sniff ran toward the learning room. “Be careful!” Josh yelled after them. He knew what they were doing was very dangerous for them. The wildlife center staff could try to trap them if they saw them.
