I went to the store,
I had some money.
I bought myself
A hopping bunny.
I marched in the field
And blew my horn.
My bunny hopped over
A shock of corn.
I ran to the meadow
To tumble and play.
My bunny hopped over
A stack of hay.
A fanciful story told in the first person, as a small boy in red overalls goes to the store and buys himself a hopping bunny. From this point on the story hops, skips and jumps along in jingly rhyme to the point where the bunny aims for the moon. He makes it, but realizes that this was overly ambitious even for a hopping bunny, and returns to earth to be safely cuddled in his owner's arms. A likable small boy he is -- and so is his furry little companion.
A VERY CUTE story of a little boy and his pet bunny. Possibly one of the cutest stories ever published.
