How Mr. Rabbit Lost his Tail Hollow Tree Stories

In the cozy Hollow Tree community, a cast of forest friends—Rabbit, Dog, Turtle, Crow, Possum, and more—spend their winters sharing stories around crackling fires. A hand‑drawn map, with its upside‑down orientation and tiny landmarks, hints at the sprawling, whimsical world they call home. The narration feels like a bedtime tale, full of gentle humor and the simple magic of animals who talk, plan, and dream together.

When a snowy night finds the Hollow Tree empty but for a few night‑owls, Mr. Dog decides to bring a surprise of his own. Having learned about Santa Claus from the nearby human house, he concocts a plan to dress up as the jolly visitor and fill the friends’ stockings with treats. His well‑meaning prank sets the stage for a series of light‑hearted mishaps that will soon involve a missing rabbit tail and the kind of friendly chaos that only this enchanted woodland can produce.
