PreS-Gr 1âCarrot-obsessed Rabbit enjoys collecting his favorite vegetable to the point that his den is so crowded with carrots that there isn't enough room for him. Rabbit sets out to solve his problem. Tortoise offers to share his shell with Rabbit. Rabbit (along with a dozen obligatory carrots) squirms into Tortoise's shell, and Tortoise's shell cracks. Now Tortoise and Rabbit both need a place to sleep, so they ask Bird. After three bodies and a load of carrots are stashed into Bird's nest, the branch breaks. The three homeless friends move in with Squirrel. After Rabbit fills Squirrel's tree with carrots, there is no room for the four of them. So the story goes until Rabbit feels so bad that he has made so many of his forest friends homeless that he invites everyone back to his den to stay and share his delicious cache of carrots. Hudson's watercolor and ink illustrations are sprinkled with fun details, like house signs. The critters' faces are as expressive as they are cute, adding feeling to the dialogue-heavy storytelling. Children will empathize with Rabbit's need to collect and keep his favorite things near him at all times. They may even think a bit about sharing, the ultimate message of the book. VERDICT This entertaining addition is suitable for sharing one-on-one or in a group.âMindy Hiatt, Salt Lake County Library Services, UT
