Synopsis / Contents All the creatures are invited to Miss Goose's for a party. Brer Rabbit gets all dressed up and sees Brer Fox. Figuring he's jealous, he pretends to be sick and won't go. Brer Fox wants him to go, though, so he can drown him on the way there. Brer Fox coaxes Brer Rabbit into going by letting him ride on his back to the party—bridle, saddle, and all. He takes out spurs and rides him all the way there, humiliating Brer Fox and becoming the life of the party.
