Reading Notes:

• Rabbit is asleep under the palm tree
• What if question: What would happen if the world were to end?
• Monkey drops coconut, Rabbit thinks it is the end of the world
• The animals he passed running all ran with him
• Deer, fox, elephant, and another rabbit
• Lion stopped them
• Lion told Rabbit to go back to the palm tree
• Lion saw coconut 
• If the Lion didn't tell them, the rest of the animals would still be running
