Edward is a rabbit. A china rabbit who goes on too many travels for any rabbit. While this story has many twists and turns and unfortunate events, it is sweet and insightful and the rabbit eventually learns to love more than his own reflection in the glass. It read very quickly, being that there are few words to a page. While the story line was okay, I think I liked the pictures better than the book. My favorite is the full-length drawing of the little boy, hoe in hand, looking up at the rabbit fastened on a pole (doing scarecrow duty) and you just know that something significant is about to happen. The boy takes off with the rabbit in order to present it as a comfort to his little sister, who is dying (possibly of tuberculosis). My favorite line in the book is, “It was a singular sensation to be held so gently and yet so fiercely, to be stared down at with so much love, Edward felt the whole of his china body flood with warmth.”
