"Where are you going so fast this bright day?"
"I am going to the garden again," said Bunny. "Mother and Bobtail are there eating cabbage."

It was white and round and furry. And it had two long ears just like his own.
Bunny stood very still and looked and looked.
"That must be a snow rabbit," he said to himself.
"But I never saw a snow rabbit in the summer. I am sure this hot sun would melt the snow."
