Love … is that very special relationship between parent and child, touchingly expressed through words and pictures in this thoroughly delightful picture book. From sunrise to sunset, a little rabbit and a big rabbit spend every minute together, ‘happy as can be’. The parent’s love is unconditional and constant, providing shelter from a shower, there to help if little rabbit is about to fall. The text may well bring a lump to a parent’s throat, children and grown-ups alike will be charmed by the very pretty illustrations, many of which glint with a sprinkling of gold foil. ~Andrea Reece
The Editor at Nosy Crow says: “Another book that melts the heart! Emma has done it again with this pair of adorable bunnies and a touching text that’s brimming with love. A perfect addition to an already successful series.”
Flurries of foil throughout and featuring a tenderly-told rhyming text and heartwarming illustrations. Exploring the loving relationship between animal parents and their babies, this beautifully-designed, padded picture book will soon become a bedtime favourite.
Emma Dodd was brought up in a family of artists and from as far back as she can remember she has wanted to be an illustrator. I Love My Mummy, written by Giles Andreae and illustrated by Emma, won the Booktrust award in 2010. Among Emma’s favourite things in life are surfing with her kids, punctuality and Scrabble. Things she cannot abide include heights, pate and children who complain that they are bored. ‘How can you ever be bored,’ she says, ‘when you can always draw a picture?’ Emma lives in Surrey.
