Translated by Marianne Martens.

Felix Scheinberger.
Rabbit Timmy wishes he were fearless like his bold and reckless friend Rocket. After misleading his mother about some missing carrots, Timmy learns that truthfulness requires courage. The didactic story's message of the merits of honesty is clear. The scratchy illustrations depict the bunny's family and friends in their woodland environs.
