And you'll know that he was there
When you find those chocolate bunnies
That he's hiding everywhere!

Do you know how to cure a rabbit?. . .
Once upon a time there was a bunny who was feeling poorly. The other bunnies gave her their carrots and lettuce, applied poultices of camomile and woody nightshade, but they could not find a way to cure her. In the end they had to take her to the rabbit infirmary.
The doctor, an old hare, put his spectacles on his nose, pushed his stethoscope into his ears, and told the sick animal, "Put out your tongue and say aaah!" The bunny put out her tongue, but said nothing. "Now I know what the trouble is," said the doctor gleefully. "This animal can't speak!"
Everyone was amazed at the old hare's wisdom and skill. "I shall cure her," he proclaimed. And he leaned over and whispered in the rabbit's ear, "Now, my dear bunny, you don't have to go to school tomorrow." Suddenly the rabbit jumped like a fish. "Hurrah! No school for me tomorrow!" she shouted.
The old doctor-hare simply chuckled knowingly. "See, if you wish to cure a sick rabbit, don't send it to school," he said.
Perhaps he was right. What do you think?
