Illustrated by Carol Thompson
This reassuring story is beautifully illustrated in a freeflowing, expressive style, and the warmth of the pictures enhances the emotions with which it deals. Katie's toy rabbit is battered and much loved, and as her most favourite thing in the whole world, goes everywhere with her. When Grandad's favourite stumpy-tailed dog has to be left overnight at the vet, Katie lends her rabbit to her Grandad to snuggle at bedtime. But no other toy can replace rabbit for Katie... Wonderfully resolved, this picture book has much to say about both inanimate and human companionship.
