I wrote this story and drawing with my son Todd in mind, but disguised him as Billy because he had broken an item in the house and didn't tell me about it until I found it. I told him he can always come to me and tell me the truth right away, and he won't get in trouble. At the time I wrote this story, it was 1979, and my son was six years old. This is why I wrote this story about the two rabbits, using Billy as Todd, and naming another rabbit Bobby. As you read the story, Billy gets a new rabbit neighbor, and they have a son by the name of Bobby, who is the same age as Billy. These two will fill you in as you go through from page to page, as their playing takes them further from home. Now they know they need help, so they head for home to tell their parents the truth about what they had done. It's better to learn their lesson.
