“The amazing story of little white rabbit and the wicked goat!”

Once upon a time there was a little white rabbit…

That went in the garden to get a cabbage to make a soup…

When he arrived home, the door was closed. He knocked on the door, and from inside the house, a very wicked voice, said:

- Go away! I am the wicked goat and if you do not go away now, I will jump over you and will break you in three pieces!

- Oh… But that´s not fair! – Said little white rabbit. - - This is my house, I build it, not you. And I do not have nowhere else to go. So please , let me in, let me in!

- And I alredy told you that I am the wicked goat, jump over you and break you in three pieces!

Not knowing what to do, the little white rabbit decided to ask for help to his friends…- What can I do? I wonder who can help me? Oh, I know. I am going to see the cow.

And he went to the farm where the cow lived.

- MU!... MUUUUU!...what brings you here, little white rabbit? - Asked the cow, while mulling his hay.

- I am the little white rabbit. This morning, I went to my garden to pick up a cabbage, to make a soap. When I got home, the wicked goat was there and told me to go away, or she would break me into three pieces. Can you go there and send her away?

The cow enter the stable in a hurry and said:- I am sorry little white rabit, but I can not do it. That goat is realy wicked, and I am too afraid of her. You must ask for help to the donkey…

So, little white rabbit, went to the field, where the donkey use to eat the tender grass…

- ION…Ion…Ion…Hello little white rabbit, what can I do for you? Ask the donkey while eating fresh grass…

- I am the little white rabbit . This morning, I went to my garden to pick up a cabbage, to make some soap. When I got home, the wicked goat was there and told me to go away, or she would break me into three pieces. Can you go there and send her away?

- That is impossible, little rabbit. She is a very bad goat. I am too afraid of her and I have to go to the windermill with my owner. You must ask for help to the dog, because he has strong theath and the goat will be afraid of him.The donkey left in a hurry…

…And the little white rabbit went to look for the dog…

The dog was playing with his friends, by his house…- Ão…Ão…Ão… What can I do for you, little rabbit?

- Hello! I am the little white rabbit . This morning, I went to my garden, to pick up a cabbage, to make a soap. When I got home, the wicked goat was there and told me to go away, or she would break me into three pieces. Can you go there and send her away?

“Forgive me but I can not do it… That goat is realy bad and I am too scared to face her. Besides, now is time to do my nap. I think the cat, with his big claws, is the rigth animal to help you.” - Said the dog yawning. And he went home.

And the little rabbit went into the forest to look for the cat that loved to exercise himself on the top of the trees…

- Miau…Miau… Miau… Hi little rabbit, how are you? What can I do for you? - Asked the cat while he was chating with a friend.

- Well, I am the little white rabbit . This morning, I went to my garden, to pick up a cabbage, to make a soap. When I got home, the wicked goat was there and told me to go away, or she would break me into three pieces. Can you go there and send her away?

- Oh… no! Please do not ask me that. The goat is too bad for me. Maybe if you ask the rooster, he can help you. He has wings and so he can fly, if he needs. – said the cat while he was going into his garden.

And little rabbit went to the farm, to look in the hannery, where cock and hen lived.…

- Có…Ró…Có…Có… I am so glad to see you, little rabbit. What can I do for you? - Said the rooster while was singing in the top of the roof.

- Well, I am the little white rabbit . This morning, I went to my garden, to pick up a cabbage, to make a soap. When I got home, the wicked goat was there and told me to go away, or she would break me into three pieces. Can you go there and send her away?

- No, no, I can not. That is a very bad goat and it is to dangerous to be near her. Is beter if you give up of your house. The goat will never get out from there!

And the little rabbit become so sad that he begin to cry…- What am I going to do now, without no house and no garden? I am so hungry. I still had no breakfast! What can I do? What can I do?

Without notecing we walk into the wood…

…And he sits right next to an anthill.

Suddenly he heard a tiny voice : - What is the problem with you, little rabbit?He looked into the rigth, and looked into the left but he could not see who´s speaking.The voice said: - Look down, little white rabbit. It´s me, the small ant. What can I do for you?

- Well, I am the little white rabbit . This morning, I went to my garden, to pick up a cabbage, to make some soap. When I got home, the wicked goat was there and told me to go away, or she would break me into three pieces.

-Is that so? Well if she is the evel goat, I am the “chews everything ant”, and I will make a hole in her belly and make her run away fast” – Said the ant.

- Let me climb to your back and run fast to your home.Once yu arrive there, please do not tell her that I am comming with you – Said the little ant.The little white rabit put his hears down and the ant climb to his back. Then, they run fast to little white rabbit house and, when they arrived there and knocked on the door, they heard a very angry voice.-Who is there?
