"The Central Park carousel had been missing something for a while.
Ever since Harriet the Rabbit was stolen in 2006, never to be seen again, there’s been a gap, an empty space, among the whimsical animals that populate the Flying Carousel of the Delta Breeze.
Rachel Peres remarked on it when she visited the carousel a few years ago with her young children.
“She talked about how unfortunate it was,” said her mom, Linda Brant, a longtime Davis resident who teaches at the Davis School for Independent Study.
“She wondered if they could afford to replace it — if we all went in on it,” Brant recalled.
But a couple of years passed, and there was no replacement. Not until last week anyway, when the hole left by Harriet’s theft was finally filled. And it was filled thanks to Rachel." (
