After watching the rabbit in the park Lilac did find some odd behavior, but it only showed to her why he had such a hard time with those in their class. It turns out that the rabbit was very shy. She watched him return to his daddy when someone came up to them. He buried his head into him as far as he could and would not come out till they had gone. This made her think that maybe he just could not talk to others well and maybe even was afraid to talk to them. With this in her mind she could do nothing but help. After getting her stuff put into her cubby hole she set off to find him and make things right.
