Synopsis

The Tale of Bunny Cotton-Tail is a short story written for children by Laura Rountree Smith. whose other writings include The Gingerbread Boy and Joyful Jingle Play Stories, and Snubby Nose and Tippy Toes.

One evening Bunny Cotton-Tail read very late, and he was so excited over the story he was reading that he waved one paw too near the candle, and burned it sadly. Poor Bunny cried so loud that all the neighbors heard him, and came running in to see what was the matter. Have you ever cried so loud that you could be heard next door? Mother Cotton-Tail tied up the burned paw in a cabbage leaf and sent Bunny to bed. And what do you suppose that comical Bunny did? He liked the smell of the cabbage so well, that he ate the leaf all up, and his poor paw began to hurt worse than ever.
