Brer Rabbit Gets Tricked is a classic Disney children’s story drawn from the traditional Brer Rabbit tales popularised through Disney’s Song of the South universe. Known for his cleverness and quick thinking, Brer Rabbit usually outsmarts his rivals—but in this story, his confidence lands him in trouble when he underestimates the cunning of his woodland neighbours.
Featuring familiar characters such as Brer Fox, Brer Bear, and Brer Turtle, the tale gently flips expectations by showing that even the cleverest trickster can be outwitted. The story delivers a light moral about humility, awareness, and learning from mistakes, making it both entertaining and instructive for young readers.
Published as part of Disney’s Wonderful World of Reading series, the book is designed for early independent readers, using short sentences, clear pacing, and vibrant illustrations to build reading confidence. The artwork is richly coloured and expressive, strongly reflecting classic Disney animation styles of the late 1970s and early 1980s.
This edition was produced as a Grolier Book Club Edition, a common and respected format for Disney children’s books of the period.
