A story that stands the test of time because its message is so powerful: whether you are rich or poor, male or female, young or old--all that matters is that you work hard toward your goals with all that is in your heart, and you will be successful. That is the story of the country bunny, who despite her status amongst the aristocrats and snobs, achieves her dream of becoming the Easter Bunny.
