Little Grey Rabbit is one of the classic gems of children's literature. The series is being relaunched to tie in with a classic television adaptation, and will delight children as much today as when it was first published seventy years ago. Little Grey Rabbit lives with Squirrel and Hare in a little house on the edge of a wood. One day, Moldy Warp the Mole finds a tiny piece of stone with a golden eye painted on it. He loves nothing more than a good treasure hunt, so off he sets to find the rest of the stone picture it must come from. Along the way he is joined by all his woodland friends. They wait for him in a meadow, while Moldy Warp digs deep below the ground. He finds Badger's secret home -- and a treasure trove AGE 4-8

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.

When Nicki drops his white mitten in the snow, he goes on without realizing that it is missing. One by one, woodland animals find it and crawl in; first, a curious mole, then a rabbit, a badger and others, each one larger than the last. Finally, a big brown bear is followed in by a tiny brown mouse and what happens next makes for a wonderfully funny climax. As the story of the animals in the mitten unfolds, the reader can see Nicki in the boarders of each page, walking through the woods unaware of what is going on. Once again Jan Brett has created a dramatic and beautiful picture book in her distinctive style. She brings the animals to life with warmth and humor, and her illustrations are full of visual delights and details faithful to the Ukrainian tradition from which the story comes.
