Once upon a time, away down under in the country of Australia,
there was born a little baby boy. His father was an Irishman, whose
happy face radiated joy and gladness, and who taught his children
to look for the cheerful side of life and to laugh. His mother was
a very devoted American lady, and as soon as this little boy could
talk she taught him to pray by repeating words phrase by phrase
after her. I was that little boy... So begins the tale of Dr.
Rabbit, a story of the author's medical missionary work for the
Karens of Burma. Dubbed "Dr. Rabbit" because of his name, he came
to be loved by the common people in this land of tigers and
elephants, riverboats and oxcarts.

Dr. Rabbit is a story of the author's medical missionary work for
the Karens of Burma. Dubbed "Dr. Rabbit" because of his name, he
came to be loved by the common people in this land of tigers and
elephants, river boats and ox carts.
Years and years ago a little five-year-old boy knelt at his
mother's knee and repeated this little prayer, phrase by phrase,
after her: "And, dear Lord, when I grow up, may I be a
missionary-at the four corners of the earth-preaching the
gospel-for Jesus' sake. Amen." This story, Treasure From the
Haunted Pagoda, tells the marvelous way in which God prepared the
"special place," where that little boy, when he grew to manhood,
could serve Him best. It is true from the beginning to end, and
even the superstitious tales of the devil-worshipers are narrated
as nearly as possible, word for word, the way they were told.
Throughout these pages you can trace again and again the blow for
blow given by the forces of evil and the forces of righteousness in
the great Christian battle, the controversy between Christ and
Satan.
KALAR, KALAR, HEH KAY KALAR! A young boy's shrill voice could be
heard over the lonely mountains of the Burmese heartland. Walking
backwards, the boy continued his call, searching desperately for an
elusive substance known to the natives a his "Kalar." These and
other bizarre practices happen daily in Burma, India. Author Eric
B. Hare brings many personal stories to young from his years of
missionary service. Included in this book are famous stories such
as Thara's "Bunny Brand" medicine, escaping the Fry Smell, and
other mythical superstitions of these fascinating Karen people.
Experience first-hand that mission field through these pages as
Thara's family takes the word of God to this devil-worshiping land.
Read as the missionaries begin a school, baptize a haunted house
and begin a brass band.
Set among the jungles of Burma, this true, exciting story will keep
you enthralled and on the edge of your seat. We learn how the
Great, Almighty God of heaven works though His Spirit and by His
power to convert evil to good. The native villagers, who for
generations have believed in the witch doctors and ways of devil
worshiping----now have a new found guiding light. This classic
struggle of good versus evil will lift your spirit and show you the
true power of faith.
