Wolfie the Bunny
Publisher: Andersen Press
The bunny family come home to discover a tiny wolf cub on their doorstep. Mama and papa are besotted, but Dot is sure her newly adopted brother will eat them all up! She avoids him as much as she can to protect herself - but, one day, a trip to the shops reveals that Wolfie is the one who needs protecting. And what else are big sisters for?
This book is an absolute delight to read. Dot is a feisty, opinionated character who gets easily frustrated by her little brother - something easy to relate to for any child with a new baby sibling.
The brown-hued illustrations are beautiful and imaginative - evoking the spirit of family life in Brooklyn. Altogether, this is a fabulous book.
