THREE LITTLE BUNNIES
One little bunny with nothing to do
Along came another one, then there were two
Two little bunnies hopping 'round the tree,
Along came another one, then there were three.
Three little bunnies having lots of fun,
They hopped and they hopped until the day was done. Gayle Bittinger
