In "Trampoline Time," a curious naturalist sets up a one-way glass to study Bugs Bunny’s unusually elaborate rabbit hole, marveling at its furnishings and comforts far beyond the norm. As the scientist and his colleagues watch from behind the glass, Bugs grows increasingly annoyed by the constant observation—until he decides to turn the experiment on its observers. Written by Don R. Christensen and illustrated by Fred Abranz, this classic Looney Tunes tale captures the absurdity and wit of Bugs’ mischievous mind, with Tony Strobl’s cover adding a playful splash of cartoon energy to a 15-cent comic from 1961.

In "Peekaboo Bunny," a curious naturalist becomes obsessed with the surprisingly elaborate rabbit hole of Bugs Bunny—far more luxurious than those of ordinary bunnies—leading him to install a one-way glass so he and his colleagues can observe the creature in his (un)natural habitat. Bugs initially tolerates the setup, but when the constant surveillance becomes too much, he quietly begins to plot a clever response.

In "Carpenter Cut-Up," longtime DIY rivals Porky and Sam take their friendly competition to the next level—until Porky accidentally slices Sam’s gleaming new table in half. With Sam’s temper flaring and sawdust on the rise, Porky scrambles to distract him, but his quick fixes only escalate the chaos.

Elmer Fudd, fed up with Daffy Duck’s antics, hatches a plan to escape: he hauls his entire house to a lonely country lot, towing it behind a truck. But with Daffy hot on his heels and the road full of unpredictable detours, even a simple move might be more trouble than it’s worth.
