Huge Harold

Poor Harold! HUGE Harold! No ordinary rabbit he. Harold just couldn't stop growing. Alas there was no room at home for a rabbit the size of a cow and for a while the world held no place for him.

First there was the dark, spooky woods, where the weasels and foxes lurked; then the haunted house where he took refuge from the thunderstorm. And worst there were the hunters and their dogs.

But fortunately the ending to this story is as gay and happy as the pictures and the lively verse in which it is told—for Harold becomes the idol of the countryside. And what more could a rabbit (even a HUGE one) want than to be petted and loved by all the children and to have such luxuries as carrot ice-cream?

This lovely, ridiculous story will appeal to children of almost any age, and there is a nice moral for humans too—

"For rabbits you see aren't affected by fame,
No matter what happens they're always the same."
