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.
[Illustration]
[Illustration]
THE bad Rabbit would like some carrot.
HE doesn't say "Please." He takes it!
[Illustration]
[Illustration]
AND he scratches the good Rabbit very badly.
THE good Rabbit creeps away, and hides in a hole. It feels sad.
[Illustration]
THIS is a man with a gun.
[Illustration]
[Illustration]
HE sees something sitting on a bench. He thinks it is a very funny
bird!
[Illustration]
HE comes creeping up behind the trees.
AND then he shoots--BANG!
[Illustration]
[Illustration]
THIS is what happens--
BUT this is all he finds on the bench, when he rushes up with his gun.
[Illustration]
THE good Rabbit peeps out of its hole,
[Illustration]
[Illustration]
AND it sees the bad Rabbit tearing past--without any tail or whiskers!
