A simple, predictable story about a little rabbit who's too small to help his parents or join the play of his older siblings; fortunately, the tricycle Granpa has fixed for him is just the right size, as is Granpa's lap when they share a book later that evening. What makes this special is the lovingly detailed setting depicted in the colored pencil illustrations, which beautifully capture the autumnal woodland, the endearing rabbits, and their cozy relationships. These soft, warm drawings are precious, in the best sense. (Picture book. 2-4)
