The Runaway Bunny

I read the children’s book called, ‘The Runaway Bunny.’  

This children’s book was written by Margaret Wise Brown, with illustrations by Clement Hurd.

It’s a delightful children’s picture book that tells the tale of a little bunny that wants to run away.

And, as the little bunny tells his mother that he will run away a conversation begins between the two of them.

The little bunny learns that no matter where he runs off too his mother will always follow, to watch and protect him.

The storyline in this children’s book shows the love between a mother bunny and her little bunny, just like the love we have for our own children.

It’s a beautiful story that all children will like.

So, why not read the book or watch it on YouTube, then you can tell me what you think.

Does The Moon Sleep?

I read the book ‘Corduroy’ which was written and illustrated by Don Freeman.

It’s a wonderful story about a toy bear called Corduroy who lives at the department store but wants to be taken home.

When the little bear finds that he has lost a button he goes on an adventure to find it, unfortunately he’s found and returned to the toy department.

All ends well when a little girl likes the little bear and brings him home where they become forever friends.

In my view this is a beautiful story that reflects imperfection and a longing to be wanted that is shown in a positive way.

Many children long to be wanted and loved by their families, the latest games, toys and merchandise does not make up for the quality time you could spend playing with your child, once that time has gone there’s no turning back the clock.

It’s definitely worth reading, young children will like it.

My final thoughts on this book are that you don’t realize how emotional the ending is, when a lonely bear and a lonely child finally find each other. I think it’s beautiful.


Read it now and tell me what you think?
