☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join free# Synopsis This issue contains two stories. In the first, Timmy the Timid Ghost reunites with his friend Shankar after a year-long separation in India, but their joyful reunion is interrupted when they encounter a fierce tiger and a buffalo. Timmy attempts to teach the tiger to behave, but the plan goes awry, leaving both friends in peril. In the second story, "Atomic Bunny: When the Moon Was Green," a rabbit protagonist wonders why the moon is green and sets out to investigate, eventually rocketing into space in pursuit of the answer. A third segment shows Timmy as a sea cadet who slips on a ship's deck and must complete various duties to avoid punishment from his captain.
Timmy befriends Renay, a carousel pony tired of her routine work and craving freedom, so when the two decide to run away together for a life of play and adventure, they quickly discover the world outside isn't quite as magical as they imagined. Between traffic scares, tummy troubles from too much candy, rain that washes away Renay's paint, and a frightening encounter in the park, the runaways learn what home really means. A heartwarming lesson wrapped in six pages of humor and heart.
When Shankar's year of work toward earning a magnificent flute—and his shot at joining the circus—goes sideways after a tiger scares away his buffalo, he finds unexpected help from an unlikely source: Timmy the Timid Ghost and the very tiger who caused the trouble in the first place. Together they race to salvage the rice harvest, but Shankar's real challenge comes when he finally gets his hands on that flute and discovers he has no idea how to play it. With a little guidance from a grateful tiger, Shankar just might get his second chance after all.
When the team's star player goes down with an injury during a crucial game, timid ghost Timmy finally gets his chance to prove himself on the field—and discovers that being incorporeal might just be the unexpected edge his struggling team needs. With the score on the line and experienced players falling one by one, Timmy takes the field for the crisscross play that could turn the game around. This lighthearted sports tale from 1961 shows that sometimes the smallest player can make the biggest difference when it matters most.
Atomic Bunny zooms to the moon to solve a cosmic mystery—why is it green?—only to discover the answer involves hungry moon foxes and a patch of atomic carrots that grant unexpected strength. Outnumbered and initially outmatched, our hero must dig deep to protect the moon's resources from an endless swarm of predators. After a grueling two-year battle, Atomic Bunny learns that heroism sometimes leaves a mark on the world—literally.
Timmy the Timid Ghost enlists as a sea cadet—despite his fear of water and his clumsiness—determined to prove himself alongside his braver friend Maxie under the stern command of Captain Galligaskins. When a storm strikes and Maxie is knocked unconscious while repairing a torn sail, Timmy must overcome his own timidity to save his friend's life.
