Résumé

"Little Jack Rabbit and the Squirrel Brothers" by David Cory is a charming tale set in the Shady Forest, where Little Jack Rabbit and his friends embark on various adventures. The story begins with Little Jack Rabbit meeting the Squirrel Brothers, Featherhead and Twinkle Tail, who invite him to play marbles. Despite the fun, they are reminded of their responsibilities when the school bell rings, and they rush to attend Professor Crow's class. The narrative unfolds with Featherhead getting into trouble for mischief in school, and the Squirrel Brothers setting out to find their own homes, as advised by their father, Old Squirrel Nutcracker. Twinkle Tail finds a home in Grandmother Magpie's old nest, while Featherhead struggles until Jimmy Crow helps him find an old crow's nest to refurbish. The story also features a wedding between Twinkle Tail and a young lady squirrel, with Parson Owl officiating and various forest creatures attending. The narrative is interspersed with lessons from Professor Jim Crow's little Black Book, offering wisdom about the forest's inhabitants and their behaviors. Throughout the story, the characters prepare for the coming winter, gathering food and making their homes secure. The tale is rich with interactions among the forest creatures, including Busy Beaver, who builds a dam, and Granddaddy Bullfrog, who shares his dreams. The story concludes with Little Jack Rabbit learning about the importance of being prepared and the value of community among the forest's inhabitants.
