Editorial Reviews
From Booklist
*Starred Review* Little Rabbit loves the hustle and bustle of city life, but at night on her balcony, she wonders if there is anyone to laugh and have fun with. Someone like, well, her. Then one day she hears music so beautiful, she just has to follow it; she ends up deep in the park, where Brown Rabbit is playing his guitar. He plays, she dances; they tell each other their stories and for a while just enjoy each other’s company. Then, once more the city lights beckon, and no matter how hard he tries, Brown Rabbit can’t get Little Rabbit to stay. Once home, there are no regrets, especially because the friendship is intact and, as the last page shows, a visit is right around the corner. True, to adults this might have elements of a sappy breakup movie, but hopefully those aspects will elude children, who will instead be captivated by the joys of friendship and, more subtly, the longing to be oneself. The story’s considerable appeal is amplified by Russell’s exceptional artwork. Using her skills as a printmaker, she places her endearing characters on beautifully colored backgrounds so smooth they resemble suede. Leaves, flowers, stars, and a checkerboard moon decorate, giving the pictures a truly distinctive look that will appeal to both adults and children. A charming offering reminiscent of the city mouse–country mouse tale. Preschool-Grade 1. --Ilene Cooper
