Rabbit School
Albert Sixtus, translated by Roland Freischlad, Fritz Koch-Gotha
Hardcover (David R Godine, Feb. 1, 2009)It's the long awaited first day of school, and here, in rhyme and pictures, is the story of two young rabbits setting off to Rabbit School. Deep in the woods, they find their beloved old schoolteacher, who teaches them everything a good rabbit must know: which vegetables and plants are tastiest; how to make the garden grow; and how to paint Easter eggs in bright colors so the rabbits may call themselves Easter bunnies with pride! He also teaches them how to stay fit and to run fast to avoid the dangerous red fox who lurks in the forest. This classic picture book by the legendary German children's book author, Albert Sixtus with lovingly detailed pictures by illustrator Fritz Koch- Gotha, is here translated into English for the first time. Delightful in its lilting verse and period drawings, it will appeal to early readers of age five and up and also to parents looking for a classic read-aloud.
