This issue features two main stories. In the first, Peter Rabbit and his friends attend a rodeo where a bull causes chaos, leading to comedic mishaps involving Peter's companions. The second story, "Reynard and Bruin the Bear," depicts a fox named Reynard being caught by a bear over stolen honey; Reynard appeals to the bear's sense of honor and offers to become a monk if the bear will test his worthiness, while bandits in a hideout pursue their own schemes in a parallel subplot. The issue concludes with a sequence featuring Timmy and other characters searching for a mouse and rat, with a large cat creating further complications.

Contains 4 stories
The Big Bang Up
7 pp · Humor, Anthropomorphic-Funny Animals, Western-Frontier

Peter Rabbit and Dazy hitch a ride on a stagecoach only to be thrown off when a boy accidentally sets off fireworks, sending the horses into a panicked stampede. As they flee across the desert, Peter and Dazy are captured by a Native American tribe, but Peter devises a clever plan using the very fireworks that started the chaos to escape and return home.

The Big Date
4.67 pp · Humor, Anthropomorphic-Funny Animals

Peter Rabbit nervously prepares for his big date with Dazy, determined to impress her with a bouquet of daisies—only to accidentally bring a flower with bees in it, causing a comical mishap. As Dazy teases him about his romantic efforts, Peter’s thoughts drift to settling down, but his clumsy charm and the unexpected arrival of Chuck add a twist to the evening.

The Medicine Man
5.33 pp · Humor, Anthropomorphic-Funny Animals, Western-Frontier

In a whimsical Western tale, a traveling medicine show brings a clever fox named Reynard and a bumbling bear named Bruin into a series of misadventures involving trickery, mistaken identities, and a crooked sheriff. As Reynard outsmarts both the showman and a gang of bandits, he uses his wits and a splash of paint to turn the tables, leading to a chaotic but cleverly orchestrated escape.

Happy Go Lucky
7 pp · Humor, Anthropomorphic-Funny Animals

Cicero, smitten after spotting a new neighbor, Fifi, tries to impress her with a series of increasingly absurd stunts—ranging from acrobatics to a failed balloon escape—while dodging the consequences of his own clumsy antics. Timmy, caught in the chaos, finds himself blamed for every mishap, even as Cicero’s schemes backfire in spectacular fashion.
