The Runaway Bunny
Author: Margaret Wise Brown
Illustrator: Clement Hurd
Age: Preschool-3rd
The Runaway Bunny is heartwarming tale of a mother’s insistence to love her baby. Baby bunny wants to run away but mother rabbit assures him that wherever he goes, she will follow.
I love the baby bunny’s imagination in thinking about places he could run away to. I can relate to the mother as she comes up with inventive ways to be there for her baby.
The illustrations are soft and dreamy. There are double-page layouts to illustrate each running away scenario.
Kids will like the adventures of baby bunny and adults will like the underlying message of unconditioned love.
