GaryH Posted May 7, 2020 Share Posted May 7, 2020 Anyone remember Tufty the squirrel as a road crossing example?

That looks just like my Nieces old bunny, looks like a similar temperament too, though I think Emily’s rabbit had scarier claws! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
