The "fearless" Hiawatha is more of a lover than a fighter. He befriends the local forest animals and they help him when he's in a bind.
The "fearless warrior" of the poem is a very small child whose pants keep falling down. He tries to shoot a grasshopper with his arrow, but the grasshopper spits in his eye. He tries to shoot a bunny rabbit, but the rabbit is too cute and pathetic. He tracks a bear, and runs after its cub and right into the mother. But the rest of the animals, thankful for him saving the rabbit, come to his rescue.—Jon Reeves <jreeves@imdb.com>
