“But he’s got a tail!” Scamp whispered in surprise. And sure enough, there coming out of his trousers was a rather bushy tail. It looked to Scamp very much like a squirrel’s tail, only this was a dark brown – the colour of mud – and it had black stripes running around it.
“Of course he’s got a tail – he’s a Troll!” said the Wizard as if everybody knew this. “And when he remembers he has a tail it is his proudest possession!”
“What do you mean, if he remembers?” asked Scamp, curiously.
“Trolls are funny creatures,” said the Wizard. “Sometimes they are so busy worrying about their precious trees and rocks that they forget they have a tail.”
“But that’s crazy!” said Scamp.
“But true!” replied the Wizard. “Do you remember how I told you that Trolls are excellent at hiding?”
Scamp nodded.
“Well sometimes, if you’re really lucky, you will be able to find a Troll because he has forgotten to hide his tail!”
