Examines the kinds and characteristics of rabbits, their care as pets, their role in legend and lore, their history, ecological importance, and usefulness in the laboratory.

Picks up where Aesop's tale left off, using the tortoise and hare's subsequent years of competition to teach several life lessons and show the power of fables.
