Day 28: The Reluctant Dragon & Kill the Wabbit

You must forgive me, but I have fallen ill, and so I will not be able to give you a reader's opinion on a book specifically. I have, however, for your entertainment and pleasure, some poetry and opera in the form of cartoons. These still are literary, just in a different form than normal. If these links end up no longer working after a while, I will give you the titles so that you can look them up on Google or Youtube. The first link is to The Reluctant Dragon, a really funny Disney cartoon (1941) about a dragon who is a poet and doesn't want to fight.

This next link is a Looney Tunes cartoon set to "Ride of the Valkyries"....a funny cartoon and, for the "elite set", a way for them to get their dose of art. It's officially called "What's Opera, Doc?"--a classic battle between Elmer Fudd and Bugs Bunny set to classical music. Sweet.
