The Rabbit's gift is one of the children books that I liked a lot and think it's worth sharing it on my Navtej Kohli Blog here.
Rabbit’s Gift by George Shannon is a modern retelling of the "giving" fable. The spirit of the original story is shown by the re-gifting of a turnip by a well-intentioned community of animals.
Through the eyes of the adorable forest creatures that are beautifully depicted by by Laura Dronzek, the reader sees that while he is not responsible for the happiness of others, his actions can deeply impact those he comes in contact with.
The book has a very easy conversational style of writing. It's logical flow of events, and the twist to the original story make this book a new classic. Shannon has done a good job in telling a complex story in a plain language that can be easily understood by children.
