“Benny, stop fibbing!” says Beatrice.
“Is fibbing the same as lying?” asks Benny.
“Yes, it is!” confirms Beatrice.
“But I’m not fibbing, Beatrice. I promise I’m not.”
But Beatrice doesn’t want to hear Benny any more. She scolds,
“Benny, I’m losing my patience with you. You see, Bunnies can’t fly.
They only hop! And you can’t possibly have 100 million of
anything. You’re clumsy. You ruined my dandelion patch when you
landed there yesterday. You’re sturdy and heavy. I’m delicate and
light as a feather! You are brown and furry all over. I am multi-
colored and beautiful. We have nothing in common
Benny. Nothing!” Beatrice shouts.
