Ma Bunny


Remember this book?



Now see this:



This is Momma Bunny, but I like to call her Ma Bunny. She is not the most beautiful thing I have made. But she made me laugh. I especially like how her ears remind me of Dilbert's pointy-haired boss. She is Part I of a birthday present for a very good friend. I gave this friend the Dumb Bunnies book when we were in our twenties. We loved the parody and the satire and the general daftness of the story (which, incidentally, I think is lost on children). She keeps me young, this friend. And on her birthday, I thought she'd like me to do the same.

Tune in tomorrow for Part II of the birthday present - not so daft as Part I.

  2. That's hilarious! And fun!

    Always good to have a friend who keeps you young. And laughing. :)

    Looking forward to the rest of the gift!

  3. I don't know about it being lost on children...my son introduced me to the Dumb Bunnies. He discovered them at his school library, when he was in kindergarten. I like them okay, but I'm pretty sure he appreciates them more than I do.

    But your version of Momma is an awesome birthday gift. When are you going to make the rest of the family? ;)
