Overview
Once upon a time two little puppies were born on the very same day. Of course that made them twins! One day when they were quite small, Jimmy’s father brought them home in a big basket. Their backs were turned to each other. One big, black eye was sticking out over one side of the basket, and two saucy brown ones over the other side. “Oh, Daddy!” was all Jimmy could say. “What shall we name them?” asked Daddy, after he had laid the doggies on a pretty green cushion by the fireplace. Jimmy turned his blue eyes way up. He was trying to think. In the next yard a little girl was blowing bubbles. The bubbles shown like the puppies’ eyes. “Let’s call the BROWN ONE BUBBLES!” he said suddenly. “Fine!” answered Daddy. Then he left his seat in the big arm-chair. The black-eyed puppy had gotten off his cushion, and was trying to chew Jimmy’s shoe! “Go back to your cushion!” he commanded, “You’ll make a lot of trouble, I can see!” “Oh, Daddy!” shouted Jimmy. “Let’s call him TROUBLES!” One evening Daddy came home with a package. “Is it mine?” asked Jimmy. “It is for your twins,” said Daddy. When Jimmy opened it, two nice, new collars fell out! On one was a silver plate with TROUBLES. On the other a silver plate with BUBBLES.
