"Uncle Wiggily Goes Swimming; Or, How the Frog Boys Surprised the Fox" by Garis is a children's storybook written in the early 20th century. The book features whimsical adventures centered on the character Uncle Wiggily, a kind and lovable bunny rabbit. The likely topic revolves around Uncle Wiggily’s entertaining escapades and his interactions with various animal characters in a charming woodland setting. The story follows Uncle Wiggily as he enjoys a day by the pond, joining the Frog Boys, Bully and Bawly, for a swim. After an amusing dive that leads him to get stuck in the mud, he is rescued by the frog brothers and later finds himself in a precarious situation with the crafty Fuzzy Fox. As the fox attempts to drag him away for a nibble, the clever frog boys devise a plan to save Uncle Wiggily by slinging a stone at the fox, ultimately thwarting his plans. The book includes additional stories that further explore Uncle Wiggily's adventures during Thanksgiving and while making a giant kite, showcasing themes of friendship, cleverness, and holiday cheer.
