Little Rabbit's Christmas, by Harry Horse (Giveaway)


Little Rabbit's Christmas is a title I have reviewed before. I re-presenting it to you though because I do think it is awfully cute and Peachtree Publishers offered to give away another copy to one of you!

If you are unfamiliar with this title, here is a synopsis, taken from my original review:

*****

Little Rabbit's Christmas tells the story of Little Rabbit who is desperately in want of a red sled for Christmas. It's the only thing he wants and he bugs his parents for it. On Christmas morning he discovers that he has received the coveted gift. All of his friends and family are in awe of it but Little Rabbit is feeling a tad bit possessive of it and, quite frankly, has a very bad attitude when it comes to sharing. In the end, he discovers that having a sled is really only fun if you DO share it with your friends!

I thought this storybook had a great message for youngsters who eagerly anticipate and await Christmas gifts and treats and then are called upon to share them. We're kind of in that stage where we have our prized items that we don't want to share and we've been talking a lot about kindness and sharing with others (primarily our siblings). I thought this book fit in perfectly with the season of gifts and giving and thought the subject matter was tastefully handled. Little Rabbit isn't too bratty (to make it so that you can't stand actually reading the story) and he learns his lesson fairly quickly and in a positive manner. The illustrations, also by Harry Horse, are adorable and I liked this book very much.

*****

This is a story that we have enjoyed for several years now and it's a favorite of all of ours. It has great charm!
