Over the next few weeks, Billy goes to his Grandpa’s STORE to check on his order for the coonhound PUPPIES. Grandpa tells Billy that the dogs will be delivered to a town called TAHLEQUAH. Instead of waiting a week to ride into town on a buggy car, Billy decides to WALK all the way to town. He sneaks out of the house in the morning and gets there by the afternoon. As he walks down the street, Billy sees many things for the first time, including a Marshal and his own REFLECTION in a store window. Billy then goes to buy gifts for his family, including OVERALLS for Papa, several yards of CLOTH for Mama, and a bag of CANDY for his sisters. Billy wanders over to the school and sees several students outside at recess. Billy tells one of the students that he has never been to SCHOOL and is taught by his MOTHER at home. Billy tries going down the “slide” (Fire escape) and falls on his face.
