      Guess How Much I Love You

      Little Nutbrown Hare, who was going to bed, held on tight
　　to Big Nutbrown Hare's very long ears.
　　He wanted to be sure that Big Nutbrown Hare was listening.
　　"Guess how much I love you," he said.
　　"Oh, I don't think I could guess that,"said Big Nutbrown
　　Hare.
　　"This much,"said Little Nutbrown Hare, stretching out his
　　arms as wide as they could go.
　　Big Nutbrown Hare had even longer arms.
　　"But I love YOU this much,"he said.
　　Hmm, that is a lot, thought Little Nutbrown Hare.
　　"I love you as high a I can reach,"said Little Nutbrown
　　Hare.
　　"I love you as high as I can reach,"said Big Nutbrown
　　Hare.
　　That is quite high, thought Little Nutbrown Hare. I wish
　　I had arms like that.
　　Then Little Nutbrown Hare had a good idea. He
　　tumbled upside down and reached up the tree trunk
　　with his feet. "I love you all the way up to my
　　toes!"he said.
　　"And I love you all the way up to your toes,"
　　said Big Nutbrown Hare, swinging him up over his
　　head.
　　"I love you as high as I can HOP!" laughed Little
　　Nutbrown Hare, bouncing up and down.
　　"But I love you as high as I can hop," smiled
　　Big Nutbrown Hare - and he hopped so high that
　　his ears touched the branches above.
　　That's good hopping, thought Little Nutbrown
　　Hare. I wish I could hop like that.
　　"I love you all the way down the lane as far
　　as the river," cried Little Nutbrown Hare.
　　"I love you across the river and over the hills,"
　　said Big Nutbrown Hare.
　　
　　That's very far, thought Little Nutbrown Hare.
　　He was almost too sleepy to think any more. Then
　　he looked beyond the thorn bushes, out into the
　　big dark night. Nothing could be further than the
　　sky.
　　"I love you right up to the MOON," he said, and
　　closed his eyes. "Oh, that's far," said Big Nutbrown
　　Hare. "That is very, very far."
　　Big Nutbrown Hare settled Little Nutbrown Hare
　　into his bed of leaves.He leaned over and kissed
　　him good night.Then he lay down close by and
　　whispered with a smile, "I love you right up to
　　the moon - AND BACK."
