About this title

From the Back Cover

One evening, Hare rushes home with news of a party he's seen – little Grey Rabbit and Squirrel hurry out to take a look at the wonderful sight, and return home determined to have their own party...

But how do you throw a party? Armed with Wise Owl's 'how to give a party' book, the preparations begin.

There are Forfeits, and Invitations, and Thimbles, and RSVP and Iced Cake to remember. Hare takes charge of Turn the Trencher, and little Grey Rabbit busies herself writing invitations. Then there is food to prepare – what a mixing, stirring and tasting!

Finally the guests arrive in their best clothes, and the fun begins. Even Wise Owl enjoys himself...though he doesn't quite play by the rules of Hunt the Thimble!

AGE 4-8 as well as adults who will remember Little Grey Rabbit from their own childhoods.
