Millie
The rabbit who knows when something isn't right.
Millie is warm, direct and hard to fool. She gives people a chance to explain themselves, then asks the question they hoped she wouldn't.
The mystery of the missing carrot
Millie left a carrot on her kitchen counter. Five minutes later, it had vanished. She checked the cupboard, the windowsill and behind the kettle. Then she wrote a list of suspects: herself, a visitor and the very suspicious kitchen clock.
Rusty stopped by and suggested building a carrot alarm. Millie asked him to check the floor first. There was a thin trail of orange crumbs leading to the sofa. Under it sat a tiny mouse, eating the last bite.
“You could have asked,” Millie said. The mouse looked embarrassed. She fetched him a plate and one more carrot. Rusty still built the alarm. It went off when Millie opened the fridge for dinner.
The mouse helped her switch it off. Rusty called the test a success. Millie wrote one more name on her list of suspects.
