Why So Sad, Brown Rabbit?

by Sheridan Cain

Why is Brown Rabbit so sad? Because he doesn't have a family. So he goes in search of a wife. But before he can find her, he meets up with three little ducklings. They think he's their mama, but Brown Rabbit is quite sure they are mistaken-or are they? Brown Rabbit wants to find a family, but is he ready for the family that finds him? Young children (and adults!) will delight in the message of this tender tale-families come in all varieties, shapes, and sizes.

Rabbit is sad that he cannot play because he is old. Someone suggests that its because he doesn't have a family so rabbit goes out to look for a wife. Rabbit falls asleep and wakes up near some eggs which are ducklings. They hatch and call rabbit mama, rabbit and the ducklings go to find their mama. Mama couldn't be found so the ducklings are taught a game. The ducklings call the rabbit papa, rabbit has found his family. This story could be used in PSHE.
