Little Grey Rabbit's Year of Stories - Tapa dura

Just like Beatrix Potter, Alison Uttley's Little Grey Rabbit stories have an enduring appeal that never dates. Little Grey Rabbit is a country Rabbit who lives with the changes of the seasons and enjoys all the different celebrations throughout the year. This treasury contains eight seasonal stories: Hare and the Easter Eggs, Little Grey Rabbit's May Day, Water Rat's Picnic, Little Grey Rabbit Goes to the Sea, Fuzzypeg goes to School and Little Grey Rabbit's Christmas. The delicate illustrations by Margaret Tempest are the perfect accompaniment to the story. This is a beautifully produced edition and a book to treasure. It's a perfect gift book and then you can share the book with your child as each celebration comes along - I think this would make the book very special, rather than reading it all in one go. -- Sarah Brew * Parents in Touch * First published in 1929, Little Grey Rabbit is an enduring character. This charming tome has six seasonal tales (GBP12.99, Templar). -- Alison Potter * Prima Baby & Pregnancy * This is a wonderful compendium of one of my childhood favourites, and I was over the moon to be able to review it. [...] It's nice how the stories included in this volume go through the seasons, which all have fun activities to try, and hurdles to face together. It's a perfect introduction to the world of Little Grey Rabbit if you've never entered it before, and a nostalgic read for those who already know and love the characters inside. -- Jessica Pitcairn * Nayu's Reading Corner *
