Synopsis
|
Brer Rabbit gets stuck in a well and tricks Brer Fox into switching positions. He finds a hollow tree trunk full of bees and tells Brer Bear it's full of honey. He reaches in and gets chased away by bees. Later, Brer Bear and Fox fill a hole in the road with syrup to catch Brer Rabbit. He falls in and rolls around until he is covered with branches. They come back to get him and Brer Rabbit scares them off with the "disguise".

Comments
|
This book is identical to Bibi Lapin Sauve Sa Peau, however for some inexplicable reason Brer Rabbit is called Jeannot Lapin! Normally "Jeannot Lapin" is used for Beatrix Potter's Peter Rabbit, of no relation.
