About This Book

A collection of short, illustrated bedtime tales follows an elderly rabbit gentleman as he travels through woodlands and farms, embarking on self-contained adventures each night. He meets a parade of animal companions and strangers, faces mild dangers and puzzles, and often seeks small fortunes or solutions before finding comforting resolutions. The tone is whimsical and gentle, with simple humor, recurring motifs of kindness and resourcefulness, and short episodic plots well suited to nightly reading aloud.
