Rabbit Pie

by Penny Ives

Published 2 March 2006
No rabbits were harmed in the making of this story! This is a charming picture book, packed full of adorable rabbits. It reads like a recipe, starting with an ingredients list: 'Find six small rabbits, cover with warm soapy water and gently scrub,' and ending with heating instructions: Leave in a warm place till morning.' But the pictures play out the familiar routine of getting ready for bed, from bath time to tucking-in time, in this case with six naughty - but highly endearing - little rabbits.
