Originally published in 1924, this Peter Rabbit-like title captures the style, grace, and innocence of children's books of that era. It's the long awaited first day of school, and here, in rhyme and pictures, is the story of two young rabbits setting off to Rabbit School. Deep in the woods, they find their beloved old schoolteacher, who teaches them everything a good rabbit must know: which vegetables and plants are tastiest; how to make the garden grow; and how to paint Easter eggs in bright colors so the rabbits may call themselves Easter bunnies with pride! He also teaches them how to stay fit and to run fast to avoid the dangerous red fox who lurks in the forest.
