Dorothy's Rabbit Stories

Originally published in 1907, this rascally collection of Rabbit stories was one of the favorite books of acclaimed writer Joan Didion (The Year of Magical Thinking), who kept this book in her collection throughout her life..
Dorothy, a little southern girl, has a pet kitten named Kim, and every evening after supper site tells one of these stories into his sleepy ears. The rabbit is the hero of the story, but the adventures in which he figures are thoroughly new and laughable on their own account.

He hears of the doings of rascally Captain Crow, of Major Possum. Colonel Coon, and General Bear; the "Peace Supper,"-first of conventions of this sort which have come to naught.-"The Moonlight Dance," and the various other happenings of sage-brush land.
Each episode has an illustration by E. Warde Blaisdell.
