Storyline
| Plot Summary |
A child rabbit is sent to school by his mother. On the way, he passes a carrot patch, which is actually a trap set by a hungry fox. He remembers what his mother told him before he left; "Don't be late to school. And remember, don't play hooky.", so he decides to walk on by. While at school, the rabbit remembers the carrot patch he passed and begins to get anxious. He pretends to have the measles, and his teacher kicks him out of school. He returns to the carrot patch, and isn't aware that the fox is waiting for him.
