Synopsis

The Snow Rabbit is about two sisters, a wintery walk into the forest, love, and an enchanted rabbit

Two sisters look longingly through their window at the snowy sky. One goes out and sculpts a little rabbit, but when she brings it back inside to her wheelchair-bound sister, it begins to melt. So they take it outside and into the forest where enchanted things begin to happen. A follow up to her hauntingly beautiful Fox’s Garden, Camille Garoche (a.k.a. Princess Camcam) mounts paper cut scenes into dioramas that are then meticulously lit and photographed, lending the illustrations depth and heightened drama. Steeped in subtle detail and unspoken emotion, The Snow Rabbit is a book to cherish.

Reviews

PreS-Gr 2—The sisters introduced in Garoche's Fox's Garden (Enchanted Lion, 2014) are back in this wordless picture book. When a bunny made of snow begins to melt, the girls take it outside and are surprised when it hops away and beckons for them to follow. One of the sisters uses a wheelchair to get around, but she, too, is able to track the bunny through the deep snow because her sister helps her when she gets stuck. Alone, neither girl would have seen the rabbit come to life, but together they are able to entertain each other and bring a bit of magic into their lives. In the end, it is the now gigantic rabbit that helps them get home safely. VERDICT This picture book about selfless love looks as beautiful as the message behind it.—Tanya Boudreau, Cold Lake Public Library, AB, Canada
