Mr. Rabbit Gets a New NameThere is a very special bunny rabbit who is ALWAYS very friendly, good, and respectful of all he meets. He loves all people and animals, and is willing to help others at any time. All who meet him, love him. He is a very intelligent and creative bunny rabbit. His long-time friends moved from the country where he lived to a far-away big city. He became sad because he missed every one of his friends. So he decided to try to find new friends. As he was wandering through a forest, he met some very nice animals. Initially, all the animals were frightened by the new bunny rabbit because of his enormous size. During a short period of time, all the animals learned to trust and love this very special bunny rabbit. All of them soon became very close friends. Prior to meeting the big bunny rabbit, the animals had made many pretty baskets and gathered many eggs from the forest. They asked him what they could do with all the baskets and eggs. This is a story of how this very special bunny rabbit came to be known as the Easter Bunny.
