Bunnies--not tigers--rule the forest in this adorable take on William Blake's classic poem.
Bunnies, bunnies, burning bright
In the forests of the night-- Wait,
bunnies?! Yes, bunnies.
Tigers may be the most feared animal in
some forests, but in
this one, they fear the bunny. One hapless tiger finds this idea preposterous--what are they going to do? Nibble on his tail? Bop him on the head? Cute him to death? Fear the bunny--HA! Make no mistake, though: Richard Morris' reimagining of William Blake's famous poem turns the tables, and teaches one testy tiger a little rabbit-respect!
