"I believe I am the
ugliest little Bunny with the ugliest little nose of any Bunny alive."

He began to dance before the mirror. He danced this way and that way
before the mirror. He danced very prettily on the tips of his toes.
Then he made a low bow and said,

"Who is so ugly? Nobody knows."
The mirror answered, "Tippy Toes."

Then Snubby Nose went back to bed. He said, "To-morrow I will go and
find Tippy Toes."

CHAPTER II

Where do you suppose Tippy Toes was, and what do you suppose he was
doing? He woke up in his warm little bed at home and said, "Oh, Ma! Oh,
Pa! I want to go and visit Bunny and Susan Cotton-Tail."

Mother Cotton-Tail laughed and said, "You have read about Bunny
Cotton-Tail burning his paw by candle-light."

Papa Cotton-Tail said, "You have read about Susan's cookies!"

Tippy Toes said, "Please, may I go and visit Bunny and Susan?"

Tippy Toes was a homely little Bunny. He had a very ugly little nose,
but he was polite. He always said, "Thank you," and, "If you please."

Tippy Toes was so pleased he hugged Mother Cotton-Tail and said, "Thank

him. They started on again and this time Mother Cotton-Tail called,
"Come back, come back, you have forgotten your overshoes. What if there
should be a thunder storm?"

So Tippy Toes went dancing merrily back and Papa Cotton-Tail waited for

nothing to go back for this time," but the wind whistled in his ears.

Mother Cotton-Tail called again, "Come back, come back, Tippy Toes, you
have forgotten your red silk pocket handkerchief."

This time Papa Cotton-Tail went back with Tippy Toes and he said, "Dear
Mother Cotton-Tail, do put on your thinking-cap and see if we have
forgotten anything else, or we shall never get off."

Then they looked high and low, but they could not find Mother
Cotton-Tail's thinkin
