BUNNY'S MOST FABULOUS VACATION EVER!

A rabbit’s search for peace and quiet is ruined by an unexpected neighbor.

Bunny can’t wait to start her vacation. Craving solitude, she drives her camper to a secluded spot by the sea. But when she wakes up in the morning, she sees Bob, a purple, scraggly monster with a green striped nose and a wide, toothy smile, waving at her. He has “set up camp…RIGHT! NEXT DOOR!” Bunny can’t believe it. Though Bob keeps to himself, she finds his activities distracting, whether he’s surfing, meditating (“I know he’s just pretending”), barbecuing, or stargazing. When a storm blows in that night, Bunny is relieved. Bob’s tiny tent is no match for the wind; he’ll have to leave. Deep down, however, Bunny can’t bear to watch him struggle. She invites him in, and the two start spending time together. Could this be the beginning of a beautiful friendship? The big, bulbous Bob is a heightened contrast to squat, rectangular, petite Bunny. Fitzgerald playfully combines dusky, muted landscapes with bright pops of color—most notably, Bob’s purple body. Eagle-eyed readers will also delight in spotting Bob’s various rainbow accessories.

A sweet tale of an unlikely friendship and a reminder that being open to change can bring surprising results.
