00:00It's not easy being a bunny.
00:29By Marilyn Sadler.
00:31Illustrated by Roger Bolin.
00:34PJ Funnybunny was very sad.
00:38He did not like being a bunny.
00:44His mother made him eat cooked carrots every day.
00:48He had far too many brothers and sisters.
00:55And his ears were very big.
01:01One day, PJ decided to leave home.
01:04I don't want to be a bunny anymore, said PJ.
01:08I want to be a bear.
01:14And PJ went to live with the bears.
01:20But when the bears went to sleep for the winter, PJ could not sleep at all.
01:26Living with the bears was not very exciting.
01:32So PJ said, I don't want to be a bear.
01:36I want to be a bird.
01:42And PJ went to live with the birds.
01:48PJ liked being a bird, until he tried to fly.
01:56So PJ said, I don't want to be a bear or a bird.
02:00I want to be a beaver.
02:07And PJ went to live with the beavers.
02:12The beavers like to work very hard.
02:15PJ did not like to work at all.
02:21So PJ said, I don't want to be a bear or a bird or a beaver.
02:27I want to be a pig.
02:33And PJ went to live with the pigs.
02:39But the only thing the pigs liked to do was sit in the mud.
02:46So PJ said, I don't want to be a bear or a bird or a beaver or a pig.
02:54I want to be a moose.
03:00And PJ went to live with the moose.
03:06But PJ could not make good moose calls.
03:08So PJ said, I don't want to be a bear or a bird or a beaver or a pig or a moose.
03:16I want to be a possum.
03:23And PJ went to live with the possums.
03:29The possums like to hang upside down.
03:31But hanging upside down gave PJ a headache.
03:34So PJ said, I don't want to be a bear or a bird or a beaver or a pig or a moose.
03:38I want to be a possum.
03:42So PJ said, I don't want to be a bear or a bird or a beaver or a pig or a moose or a possum.
03:51I want to be a skunk.
03:57And PJ went to live with the skunks.
04:00It did not take PJ very long to find out that he did not like living with the skunks.
04:06So PJ said, I don't want to be a bear or a bird or a beaver or a pig or a moose or a possum or most of all, a skunk.
04:22What I really want to be is a...
04:25What I really want to be is a...
04:32Bunny!
04:33So PJ hurried home.
04:35The funny bunnies were very happy to see him.
04:37And PJ was very happy to see them.
04:43That night, PJ ate all of his cooked carrots.
04:47And played with every one of his brothers and sisters.
04:54He was so happy to be a bunny again that he did not care that his ears were very big.
05:01At least everyone can see that I am a bunny, PJ said, and not a...
05:08Bear or a bird or a beaver or a pig or a moose or a possum or a skunk.
