Write a one paragraph summary of the major events that happened in chapters 4-6.

They find out just how much they really need to work as a team to get chores done and to stay safe
On chapter 4 Travis woke up ate breakfast, when he was eating he saw two bulls come and start
fighting.  Travis was a bit excited but he also knew this could be dangerous.  Travis went outside with the famly sat on the fence they had and watched the fight but he was so excited he didn't notice that a bull was about to hit the fence.  The bull hit the fence and Travis hit the ground so Travis had to run back to the cabin and got the whip trying to scare the bulls away and gain control to protect his family.  Travis and Old Yeller went squirrel hunting with Arliss where they killed 5 squirrles  for dinner with no help from Arliss because he  is slow an very loud.
