Huey Rabbit and the News Jan Cannon

Huey Rabbit was born at 2:33 a.m. on September 21, 1975, in Woodinville, Washington. He was the eldest of a litter of seven bunnies born to Henry and Helen Rabbit on that stormy night. Huey was a precocious and adventurous bunny. He was the first of the litter to open his eyes and the first to leave the nest and help his mother around the burrow.

While still a young bunny, he left the burrow and flew to Fairbanks, Alaska, where he took up residence with Dr. Cannon's family. His principal duties were those of tutor and computer programmer. However, he also found time to serve as director of agricultural activities. It was in this latter capacity that Huey was twice awarded the title of State Grand Champion Rabbit at the Tanana Valley Fair.
