The Little Bunny

Once there was a little bunny named Grass.

He was grey with a black spot on his right ear.

He and his mom lived in a little hole in a forest.

He wanted to show his friends he was brave by doing something daring.

So he went off to find his friends.

When he did he said, “Watch me jump off a tree�

So he and his friends went to find a big, tall tree.

When they did they made a ladder.

Finally it was done and he climbed up into the tall, tall tree.

Then he closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and jumped.

Suddenly Evil Eagle SWOOPED down and caught him in a box.

She flew to her nest.

Just before she tipped the box he jumped out.

But his friends had made a leaf mattress and he landed on it.

He thanked his friends and rode a cow home.

But then the cow turned and he had to walk home.

Grass thought that was a bad idea and decided to never do that again.

So, he returned home to his mother.

The End.

Moral: Never jump off a tree if you are a bunny.

About this Book Grass wants to be daring!

How will he show it?
