Walker Tom Rabbit

Tom Rabbit is Sammy's soft-toy rabbit. He is happy with Sammy. But one evening Sammy takes Tom Rabbit out to the back field to see the real rabbits - and leaves him on the wall. The sun sets and the moon rises, and dozens of wild rabbits appear. But just as Tom Rabbit thinks he's been abandoned for the night, Sammy appears and carries Tom Rabbit back home to bed. Editorial Reviews Review "The simply-told tale of Tom Rabbit recognises the important relationship a child can have with a favourite toy. From the consistently satisfying writer Martin waddell, this moonlit story... also manages to encompass the idea that children can survive parental separation." The Financial Times "This is a perfect bedtime story for the three-plus age group."
