    "Oh, Little Bun Rabbit, so soft and so shy, 
    Say, what do you see with your big, round eye?" 
    "On Christmas we rabbits," says Bunny so shy, 
    "Keep watch to see Santa go galloping by." 
    This delightful story tells of the Little Bun Rabbit who is befriended by Dorothy, a little girl.  She knows the rhyme and asks the little rabbit about it.  Bun Rabbit tells her that indeed, he sees Santa every year as he drives by in his sleigh loaded with toys.  One year Santa stopped to talk with him and ask if he would come to his workshop at the North Pole so he could use him as model to make toy rabbits for little babies.  He agrees and this is his exciting adventure with Santa.  That is why so many stuffed bunny rabbits are made and given at Christmas to be loved by children everywhere.

    Here for your enjoyment are 12 imaginative stories written by A.A. Milne about beautiful 12 illustrations originally published in the Colliers magazine. (I strongly urge listeners to find this book on line and look at each illustration while listening. The story he weaves is intimately involved with what is going on there. I promise you will be delighted.) He wove these into flights of fancy and fun about the children shown; their background, problems and desires. I liked these stories and just wanted to have the joy of reading them myself. So this will be my solo attempt to bring these stories to life for children and adults.
