A bunch of drawings

These past few days I have received a bunch of new drawings. Anyone who wants to contribute, please go to my website.

Juliette, from Tampa, Florida, gives us a condensed version of Hey, Rabbit!

This is by Renee from Thetford, VT.

Crazy Shep, also from Thetford, says hi.

Daniel doesn't seem to be among the biggest fans of Rabbit.

But Secret Admirer from Lake Toho, VT, more than comforted me.

Mr. Man is a pure minimalist.

Thank you, Clara from Vermont!

Asa Bob knows something we don't know about Rabbit.

Old Joe from Somewhere draws nice woolen hats.

And Lillian tried to hide Rabbit, but we can still see him!
