The author first showed this theme in beginning of the story when they talked about how eager Tom was about the Christmas Hunt, which he wasn't old enough to go on. The theme of patience is the best policy is continued into the middle of the story when Tom was planning how he was going to prove his dad wrong, by getting a bunch of birds and doing really well on his own without anyone else's help, even though bad things might happen. To tie up the story and its theme the author talked about when Tom was patient he got many more things, such as his own hunting dog and his own birds, and a greater experience when he waited to go on the Christmas Hunt.
