We all have to meet our match sometime or other.
Featuring a brand new foreword from Madeline Miller, author of The Song of Achilles, to celebrate the 50th anniversary of this beloved classic of children’s literature.

Together with his brother Hazel, they leave immediately and lead a small band of rabbits on a search for a new home.
