Little Rabbit Lost

It's time for irrepressible Little Rabbit to celebrate his birthday and discover the opportunities and challenges of independence.

On Little Rabbit's birthday, his family surprises him with wrapped presents and a special trip to Rabbit World. Mama Rabbit packs a special birthday picnic and the family sets off for the amusement park with Little Rabbit and his red balloon leading the way. Little Rabbit is excited by the noise, color, and crowded activity of the park.

He insists he is a big rabbit now and ignores his parents' warnings to stay close. But when he suddenly finds himself all alone, he doesn't feel quite so grown up anymore.

Harry Horse hits all the right notes in this gently humorous, reassuring story that depicts how children cope with a big transition. Readers will identify with the Little Rabbit's conflicting desires for independence and reassurance.

Harry Horse wrote and illustrated many books for children, including the popular Little Rabbit picture books and several middle grade novels. He was also a political cartoonist for several national newspapers in the United Kingdom. He passed away in 2007.
