Nayuleska's thoughts
The
simple illustrations made it easy to focus on the story which has a good lesson
for the reader to
discover.
Everyone at some points in their lives wish they had what someone else has -
the trickster rabbit discovers playing tricks isn't a good idea with the
unexpected and hilarious end.
Suggested
read
For
another book with a message about manners check out The Big Sticky Bun by Vivian French & Selina Young (Children's, 5 years +, 10/10E)
