Behind the old hollow tree, in the darkest part of the woods, in a very dark cave, lived the nasty Doctor Digit. He was such a tough guy that he even ate his Wheaties without any sugar. At sunset every day he could be seen getting out of his bed. He would get dressed making sure that he did up every button on his long black coat. Then he slipped a wicked looking knife up his sleeve and with a mad laugh went skipping off through the forest to see what he could find. Here at a late hour he could be seen cutting daisies in the moonlight. 1
