Tom Rabbit

This charming new story by the creators of the classic Little Bear books takes a tender, humorous look at being lost . . . and then found.

Late one afternoon, Sammy takes his toy rabbit, Tom, out to the back field on the farm to see the real, wild rabbits. Tom Rabbit is happy with
Sammy. But then Sammy goes into the house for supper, leaving Tom all alone. When the moon rises and the wild rabbits come, what will they think of a little toy rabbit like Tom? And most important of all, will Sammy come back to bring Tom home?

Martin Waddell’s gentle but powerful text and Barbara Firth’s expressive illustrations portray the feelings that emerge when one is lost, but then
reassuringly found.

Martin Waddell says of Tom Rabbit, "Something very like Tom Rabbit’s adventure happened to me when I was a small child waiting for my mother."

Barbara Firth says, "At one time or another, we’ve all experienced the feeling of being forgotten—followed by the relief of being collected by someone we love."
