Rescue of the Tiny White Rabbit

Santa and Milo found a missing notice by a garden gate. It showed Ivy, a tiny white baby

rabbit with gray ears. Her eyes were round and dark, bright as winter

beads. The note said, "She hopped away near the old greenhouse." Milo folded the

notice and pointed toward the snowy path. The reindeer landed near sleeping flower

beds and frosty hedges. Santa lifted a lantern to scan the quiet yard.

Milo listened for small sounds under the wind. Tiny tracks dotted the snow like little

stitched commas. They followed the trail toward the greenhouse door. The tracks slipped

past pots and a tipped wooden crate. They led to a low fence dusted with fresh snow.
