Books in Little Grey Rabbit series

Little Grey Rabbit is one of the classic gems of children's literature. The series is being relaunched to tie in with a classic television adaptation, and will delight children as much today as when it was first published seventy years ago. Little Grey Rabbit lives with Squirrel and Hare in a little house on the edge of a wood. It's March, and Hare is feeling as mad as only a March Hare can feel. So off he dashes into the village to see what he can find. There are untold delights -- jars of sweets, dolls, and wooden horses, but best of all, eggs made of chocolate with sugar flowers and ribbons tied round them. Hare decides to surprise his friends on Easter morning with these wonderful things! When he does, his cleverness is greatly admired -- but then Hare has always known just how clever he is! AGE 4-8

One evening, Hare rushes home with news of a party he's seen -- little Grey Rabbit and Squirrel hurry out to take a look at the wonderful sight, and return home determined to have their own party! But how do you throw a party? Armed with Wise Owl's 'how to give a party' book, the preparations begin. There are Forfeits, and Invitations, and Thimbles, and RSVP and Iced Cake to remember. Hare takes charge of Turn the Trencher, and little Grey Rabbit busies herself writing invitations. Then there is food to prepare -- what a mixing, stirring and tasting! Finally the guests arrive in their best clothes, and the fun begins. Even Wise Owl enjoys himself!though he doesn't quite play by the rules of Hunt the Thimble! AGE 4-8 as well as adults who will remember Little Grey Rabbit from their own childhoods.

'Tick-tock, it's 8 o'clock. Wake up, Little Rabbits! It's time for breakfast. Rise and shine!' White Rabbit, Brown Rabbit, and Black and White Rabbit can't waste any time this morning. Their good friend Gray Rabbit is coming to visit and there's plenty to do! Will the Little Rabbits have time to clean the house, do the shopping, and make a special surprise dinner all before Gray Rabbit arrives? Young children will enjoy moving the hands on the clock on every colorful spread as they learn to associate the time of day with each of the Little Rabbits' activities. The Little Rabbits' busy schedule - getting up, having breakfast, and going shopping - is reassuringly familiar to young children and gently introduces the concept of time into their world. Alan Baker's lively art includes dozens of brightly colored everyday objects for children to point to and talk about with their parents. On each spread, clear instructions explain how to move the clock hands to match the time shown on both traditional and digital clock faces, while simple questions help parents reinforce newly learned skills, and build confidence in every child.
