BR 2-14: Brer Rabbit Down The Well

This is a story about Brer Rabbit, Brer Fox and a deep, dark well. Brer rabbit was running very fast. Brer Fox was chasing him. “I’m going to eat you up,” growled Brer Fox. Brer Rabbit ran faster. He came to s deep, dark well. “I can hide here,” he thought. He jumped into the bucket. But the bucket started to fall. The bucket fell and fell. “How will I get out?” thought Brer Rabbit. Brer Fox said “Found you!” from above. “You can’t hide from me,” he growled. “I’m not hiding. I’m fishing.” said Brer rabbit. “There are some huge fish here.” He made a splashing sound with his paw. “I’ve got one. And another!” cried Brer Rabbit. “Come down here” he added. Brer Fox loved fish. He forgot about eating Brer Rabbit. He turned the handle. The bucket came up. Brer Rabbit hopped out. And Brer Fox got in. He fell down. Brer Rabbit laughed. “Where are the fish?” growled Brer Fox. “In the river,” said Brer rabbit. It took Brer Fox a very long time to climb out.

I thought it was pity for fox. Rabbit tricked fox. But I thought rabbit was intelligence when he said “There are some huge fish here.”(Louie, 2009, p.13)
