: Rabbit Teaches Attitude of Gratitude

Moral: An Attitude of Gratitude Always

Leads to Prosperity

Summary: Mother Earth had asked Rabbit to help the people that lived on a mountain top change their attitude into one of gratitude. Their lack of gratitude for Mother Earth was the main reason for their poverty. To change their situation, they would need to change their attitude, but Rabbit had a problem. He was afraid to tell them because they were not the friendliest people to be around with. He knew that his message of gratitude was the only way that these people’s harvest would improve. But there is one obstacle that Rabbit has to succumb to and he needs to be grateful for that. How can he help others when he needs help too?

Title: Rabbit Teaches the Law of Resistance

Moral: What You Resist Will Persist

Summary: The people from both villages were supposed to take turns in watering the gardens, feeding the livestock, planting the crops, harvesting the crops, and plowing the fields after every harvest. But not everyone did their job, which caused the plants to die. The people mumble and grumble about the lack of harvest while resisting to change their ways. Mother Earth needs Rabbit to teach the people and the critters that they need to take their jobs seriously. The children are also resisting to obey their parents. Rabbit must teach all of them that the more they resist in complying with the laws of the land the less Mother Earth will give them, hence they suffer for their actions.

Title: Rabbit’s Great Vacation: Relax, Refresh, Recycle

Moral: We all play a part in the preservation of Mother Earth.

Summary: Mother Earth asked Rabbit to take a trip to the land where the water is crying out to her. He is to check out what is happening and fix the problem. You see, the people from the water are not like the people from the mountain. They live by the water that is salted. Their lives are just as plentiful, but there is something that needs to be done to restore the harmony and balance to their land. It is Rabbits’ job to see that all is well with the people and the ocean that provides for them. Mother Earth also wants Rabbit to experience what the terrain from the other side of the mountain feels like and the different critters that live in the salted waters. Rabbit has never seen water bigger than the pond his friend Goldie lives in. This will be a new experience for him. He thinks that he is going on a big vacation, until he finds out what’s waiting for him on the other side of the mountain.
