Synopsis

'Rabbit's Bad Habits is a breath of fresh air in children's fiction, a laugh-out-loud story of rabbit and wolf and bear, of avalanches and snowmen. The sort of story that makes you want to send your children to bed early, so you can read it to them.' Neil Gaiman From novelist and playwright Julian Gough, and the winner of the Roald Dahl Funny Prize, Jim Field, comes a brilliantly funny story of a rabbit and bear who discover that things are always better when they're shared with a friend ...Bear wakes up early from hibernation. If she can't sleep, then at least she can make a snowman. Rabbit has never made a snowman, but he definitely wants to make one that's better than Bear's. But with an avalanche and a hungry wolf heading his way, Rabbit soon realises that it might be nice to have a friend on your side. A tale of friendship, gravity, and just a little bit of poo.

About this title

Review:

Rabbit's Bad Habits should become an instant modern classic. Stands shoulder to shoulder with Pooh and Toad. Cheeky, delightful and hilarious. (Eoin Colfer)

A perfect animal double-act enchants. (Alex O'Connell The Times)

Sure to become a firm favourite (The Bookbag)

A laugh out loud story with just a hint of poo. (Charlie Byrne's Bookshop)

A charming, wonderful and eccentric story (Sschambe Blog)

It's an exhilarating, very quietly educational, and - most of all - riotously funny read. (Waterstones, Leilah Skelton)

This is a superb book and the real joy to me is in the conversations (sometimes quite philosophical) between Rabbit and Bear. (Parents In Touch)

It's beautifully illustrated and is a super story, with cheeky one-liners, that is ideal to share on cold winter evenings (Manchester Evening News)

A great book that will become a classic (London Mums Magazine)

What a treat this little book is! Not only does it have a funny and warm story that is full of heart, it is also gorgeously presented with spot-colour illustrations by Jim Field...Lots of fun, highly recommended. (Anna Flinn Reading Zone)
