Title: The Story of a Fierce Bad Rabbit Author: Beatrix Potter [More Titles by Potter] This is a fierce bad Rabbit; look at his savage whiskers and his claws and his turned-up tail. This is a nice gentle Rabbit. His mother has given him a carrot. The bad Rabbit would like some carrot. He doesn't say "Please." He takes it! And he scratches the good Rabbit very badly. The good Rabbit creeps away and hides in a hole. It feels sad. This is a man with a gun. He sees something sitting on a bench. He thinks it is a very funny bird! He comes creeping up behind the trees. And then he shoots--BANG! This is what happens-- But this is all he finds on the bench when he rushes up with his gun. The good Rabbit peeps out of its hole . . . . . . and it sees the bad Rabbit tearing past--without any tail or whiskers! [The end] GO TO TOP OF SCREEN |
