Like dogs and cats, rabbits end up in need of being rescued from life on the streets or kill shelters. It isn’t uncommon to find domesticated rabbits abandoned in the wild. Others are found as strays, turned over to rescue groups, dumped at shelters, or retrieved from hoarding situations. While much attention is paid to the fates of cats and dogs in need of homes, rabbits awaiting adoptive forever homes rarely find themselves in the limelight—but rabbits need love, too. In this book, author and pet photographer Susannah Maynard draws attention to the struggles and triumphs of rabbits in foster care or shelters and chronicles the journeys of bunnies who have found their forever homes. Readers of all ages will enjoy more than 150 personality-filled portraits of rabbits—whether young, elderly, part of a bonded pair, or those with special needs—that show the charming personalities of these cotton-tailed critters.

Newbery Honor author Cynthia Lord likes fostering rabbits—or, as she fondly calls it, “borrowing bunnies.” This is the heartwarming true story of the author’s own journey with two very special rabbits. In the spring of 2016, Peggotty and Benjamin were saved by Maine’s Cottontail Cottage Rabbit Rescue after their previous owners had neglected them. But before the two Netherland Dwarf rabbits could be adopted, Cynthia had to help them learn to trust people and feel safe inside a home. The bunnies slowly settled in, enjoying their clean pens, nibbling new foods, and playing with fun toys, while Cindy’s husband, John Bald, photographed Benjamin and Peggotty’s every step toward adoption. At that time, hundreds of viewers were drawn to Cindy’s Facebook page to watch their progress. Now, she has adapted the rabbits’ true story into a picture book that explores love, responsibility, empathy, and letting go—along with fostering’s many surprises, both big and small. Young readers will delight in watching these bunnies thrive while also learning a few fun animal facts. With Cindy’s pitch-perfect blend of warmth and real-life experience, Borrowing Bunnies is a new classic in narrative nonfiction.
