The Rabbit’s Whiskers and Other StoriesAuthor/s: Enid Blyton

A collection of short stories for young readers by Enid Blyton, first published in 1987 (Award Publications), running to 192 pages with illustrations by Suzy-Jane Tanner.

It’s an anthology rather than one continuous story — a mix of short, whimsical tales about animals, toys, and mischievous characters, typical of Blyton’s gentle children’s fiction with light morals baked in. The title story follows a vain toy rabbit: Mr Woffles is very proud of his fine whiskers and is embarrassed when a careless hairdresser cuts them off, worrying about how he’ll look at the teddy bear’s party.

Other stories in the collection include:

• The Conjuring Wizard
• The Astonishing Curtains
• Tick-a-Tock, the Greedy Rabbit
• Sly-One and the Honey-Pot
• Snippitty’s Shears
• What Billy and Betty Found
• The Adventurous Duck
• Ho-Ho’s Bad Penny
• Spot and the Biscuit Tin
• The Sailor Doll Goes to Sea
• Selfish Sammy
• Goosey-Goosey-Gander
• Angelina Jane
• The Big Box of Chocolates
• Oh, You Crosspatch!

Each story is a self-contained tale featuring anthropomorphized animals, toys, or children learning small lessons — about vanity, greed, selfishness, kindness — wrapped in Blyton’s characteristic light, simple prose for early readers.
