About This Book

An elderly rabbit gentleman undertakes a series of brief, whimsical episodic adventures in which he travels, meets other animals, and encounters mild dangers and comic mishaps. Stories follow his attempts to ease his rheumatism through travel, his visits with animal friends, and moments of being trapped, rescued, or mistaken, often resolved with ingenuity or kindness. Each tale is simple and gently humorous, moving through varied settings—parties, parades, boats, balloons, and encounters with curious creatures or giants—to provide a comforting, entertaining sequence of bedtime episodes for young readers.
