“Puff, puff, puff,” went Old Father Bun’s pipe.
By and by he wrote the following:
“Rabbit lost, Rabbit lost!
Get him back at any cost.
He runs away o’er hill and dale,
He has long ears and stubby tail.”
Old Mother Bun said:
Where every animal can see.”
Old Father Bun did not agree with her. He knew it paid to advertise in newspapers. So he put on his old felt hat, took his walking stick, and started out to a real newspaper office. He took his notice to Chatterbox, the Monkey newspaper man. So all the animals soon read in their newspapers about the Runaway Bunny.
