3.0 out of 5 stars Good Rabbit Care Book, Great Pictures!, October 17, 2003
By Timothy Kearney (Hull, MA United States) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)      
THE ESSENTIAL RABBIT is a relatively recent addition to rabbit care books. It contains all of the basic information about rabbit care and has more of a focus on keeping rabbits indoors which is helpful. The author paid great attention to the organization and layout of the book which makes the book easy to use. While other rabbit books such as WHY DOES MY RABBIT by Anne McBride and THE HOUSE RABBIT HANDBOOK contain more in depth information, this book would be wonderful to use with children. It is well organized and easy to read, so parents and children can use the book together.

There is one strength of this book over most of the other rabbit care books which may be a major reason why I purchased the book. I am an amateur photographer and this book has some of the best photographs of rabbits. It will give the reader plenty of ideas for photographing pets. I find it is simply a pleasure to rummage through the pages from time to time.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Essential Rabbit (An Essential Book!), December 12, 2000
As a first time rabbit owner, I found this book very helpful. It contains information on rabbits that you wouldn't even think about asking! This is a great book with a lot of useful information about selecting a rabbit, caring for your rabbit, the different breeds, and even little rabbit facts!

3.0 out of 5 stars Provides basics, but not much on behaviors, May 24, 2003
By Online Shopper (Aurora, IL United States) - See all my reviews
This book covers how to take good care of a rabbit, but it doesn't say much about rabbit behaviors or instincts. It doesn't explain circling, spraying, nipping, digging, and other common rabbit behaviors.
The book primarily describes how to take care of a pet rabbit, and that information is thorough and well written. It is written simply enough for a child age 8+ to understand.
