1. The first obstacle encountered by the family is grass - long, wavy grass. They can't go over it or under it, so they have to go through it. What noise do they make?
From Quiz We're Going on a Bear Hunt
Answer:
Swishy swashy!
There is a black and white drawing showing the family as they set off up the hill. A bigger girl is helping to tow a younger one; the father is carrying the baby; a boy is brandishing a forked stick; there is also a dog running along with them.
"Swishy swashy! Swishy swashy! Swishy swashy!"
On the next (coloured) page we see the family are making their way over a hill covered in long grass with poppies and, possibly, buttercups growing in it. The father, wearing a dark blue sweater and blue jeans, is still giving the baby, wearing a pink suit, a piggyback; the black and white dog, practically hidden by the vegetation, is running ahead of him; behind are the younger girl with brown pigtails, who is wearing a blue dress, and the red-headed boy, who is wearing a red sweater and khaki shorts and carrying a forked stick; finally the elder, blonde, girl, who is wearing a white dress, black stockings and a mauve cardigan. There are some trees on the skyline, a flock of birds in the sky, and a few cottages just visible behind the hill.
