“Befuddled animals are always adorable, and Rabbit, with his expressive ears and large eyes, is no exception.” — Booklist
Rabbit has a problem. There’s a large black rabbit chasing him. No matter where he runs—behind a tree, over the river—the shadowy rabbit follows. Finally in the deep, dark wood, Rabbit loses his nemesis—only to encounter a real foe! Kids who like to be in on the secret will revel in this humorous look at shadows and friendship.
