CHAPTER 1
Under a small tree lived a rabbit family of six. They did not own the largest rabbit hole or have enough carrots to make cakes, ice cream, or pudding. Nor did the kids have many toys like the other rabbit children. What they did have was love.
But Blu was not satisfied. He wanted to live in the largest rabbit hole under the largest tree—a hole that all rabbits dreamed of. He wanted more for his kids. He wanted more of everything.
Blu thought he knew what was best.
"I must find a way to have it all," Blu said to himself.
"Baba, look what I made!" said his daughter.
"Baba is busy now," he replied. "I am thinking of the plan of all mighty plans."
Blu spent whole days and nights thinking of a plan to become the richest rabbit of all—one that owned everything, with no limits.
"Baba, come play with us!" his sons said.
"Baba is busy now," he replied. "I am thinking of the plan of all mighty plans."
Weeks passed. The kids stopped asking their father for anything because the answer was always the same.
One day, Blu came running to his wife, Mary. "I found it!" he cried.
"What did you find?" Mary asked.
"I found a plan that will unlock our world! We will not need this old stuff anymore. You won't need to worry about tomorrow because everything will be secure."
Mary tried to explain to him that although they had so little, she was happy. But Blu didn't listen.
"See that big, shiny stone floating up there in the sky? I will find its stairs and bring it back. It should be worth a lot. I will leave tomorrow at dawn," he said.
He thought he knew what was best.
