This manages to be an interesting variation on the lost-toy-is-dropped-in-the-wood-and-gets-found-later theme. Beginning in the usual way, a little girl loses her cuddly rabbit, the story gains interest from the family of real (although talking) rabbits who find him. Their responses add a nice twist to the plot. It's a little confusing to find a toy real rabbit and pretend real rabbits in the same story, but this is a possible talking point; which are the real ones, if any? [See next review.]
