Quote 5 of 7

From Karlson-on-the-Roof, by Astrid Lindgren

... Midge went over to see what Karlson had been painting.

'Portrait of my Rabbits' was written along the bottom, but what
Karlson had painted was a little red animal which looked more like a
fox.

'Isn't that a fox?' asked Midge.

Karlson came swooping down and landed beside him.  He put his head on
one side and peered at his picture.

'Yes, certainly it's a fox, without doubt, it is a fox painted by the
World's Best Fox Painter.'

'Yes, but,' said Midge, 'it says "portrait of my rabbits" ... Where
are the rabbits?'

'They're inside the fox,' said Karlson.
