One of Harry Horse's Very Best

We were truly saddened to learn of Harry Horse's death earlier this year; his books, especially the Little Rabbit series, have brightened our household's nighttime reading sessions enormously these past three years. All the Little Rabbit books are wonderful, but to us _Little Rabbit Runaway_ stands alongside _Little Rabbit Goes to School_ as the best. We've returned to these over and over, in large part I think because Little Rabbit's character is so endearingly representative of most children -- by turns mischievous, petulant, but ultimately generous and lovable. There are morals to these tales, to be sure, but never to the point where they diminish children's sense of fun and adventure. Horse had a unique gift in this regard, and these books will remain in our girls' reading rotation in the months and years to come.

Really cute

As always, Little Rabbit is completely endearing. Stretching his independence, but under Mama's watchful eye, Little Rabbit strikes out on his own and moves in with his friend Molly Mouse. A return to living by Mama's side is to be expected and it's not the most original plot, but every page's illustrations can be poured over as you notice all of the precious details.
