Follow Juney Brown Toes, a young and adventurous Hare, her friends
Slow Freddy and Tufty Thomas, and many others, as they spend a
remarkable 'Mad March' day, racing, chasing and being chased by
friends and enemies alike. What will Juney do when the evil Grey
Hound shows up unexpectedly in the middle of a dangerous 'Hare of
the Dog' game, and will Farmer, and his daughter Samantha, be of
any help to save poor Slow Freddy from the jaws of the Grey Hound!
Hare's have been a fascination of mine for sometime. I've rarely
seen one! I remember walking above Lancaster, my hometown, some
years ago. It was a beautiful, crisp, sunny morning and the ground
was covered in a layer of snow. In nearly every field we walked
through a Hare would bolt from the hedge nearby and race across the
snow covered ground. They were magical to watch, almost alien in
appearance, and completely fascinating to me. I have since done
research on them, and they become more interesting with every new
fact I learn. They are ancient animals, and ever present in
mythologies from around the world. They are low down on the food
chain, and even buck rabbits have been known to kill Leverets now
and then. Speed and stealth are their only defenses, and they have
been clocked at near forty-five miles an hour, one of the fastest
land animals. Anyway I digress, this book is about Hares, it is
primarily written as a 'read to' book, for children of all ages. It
is an adventure/fantasy short story, and Hares are the heroes, with
a little girl taking a strong supporting role. The cherry-wood
carving of the Hare actually exists in my garden, and its origins,
bought from the side of the road from a bodger, are true too.
Otherwise this is a work of fiction written out of a love and
fascination for Hares, I hope you enjoy.
