Synopsis:

This book is a must-have for anyone who already has or who is thinking of getting a rabbit. It's an equally good fit for those who care about animals or who believe in the power of kindness and love. The twenty-five true stories are primarily about rescued rabbits, most of whom endure traumatic beginnings but end up in loving homes. Containing beautiful photographs and original art, this volume invites people to reconsider the standard view of rabbits as little more than cute and cuddly. Readers quickly learn that the small creatures are courageous, intelligent, and independent, and that they have a strong, positive influence on the people who care for them. The stories offer a respite in our otherwise hectic lives, provide hope and healing, and inspire us to become more gentle in our dealings with others. Bestselling authors Susan Chernak McElroy and Dr. Bernie Siegel each penned a personal story, and the eloquent Foreword to the book was contributed by Dr. Michael W. Fox. Each story is followed by an About Rabbits piece that explains something about rabbits, ranging from diet to deafness. The back matter contains several excellent articles, including Dr. Angela Lennox on dental care and elementary teacher Cheryl Rosemary Abbott on helping children show love and respect for an animal companion. The book is for mid-elementary students through adults and also appropriate for reading aloud to younger children.
