Review
"It is difficult to believe that this very modern feminist tale was originally written in 1939. A gem of a fantasy in which kindness and cleverness win out over size and brawn."--Learning Magazine

I had to buy a copy for my adult daughter as well.,

This review is from: The Country Bunny and the Little Gold Shoes (Paperback)
This was my favorite book when I was a child.The story was so sweet it made me cry. I knew nothing then of what a strong statement this book made about the necessary determination and dedication of single mothers. My daughter came to love this story as much as I do, and, although she's 21 now, I had to buy her a copy as well, when ours finally fell apart from years of loving and reading.

The Country Bunny and the Little Gold Shoes.,
By Ben (Michigan) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Country Bunny and the Little Gold Shoes (Hardcover)
According to this book, there isn't just one Easter Bunny, but five. When one of them gets too old, then a new one is chose by the grandfather bunny. A poor country bunny named Cottontail wants to be an Easter Bunny. She eventually gets older and has many children. She teaches her children to take care of the house. Then word comes around that one of the Easter bunnies needs to be replaced, so all the bunnys go to the Easter Egg palace to see who can become the next Easter Bunny. Cottontail turns out to be the wisest, swiftest, and kindest bunny. She goes to deliver an egg to a sick boy over many mountains. She goes up the last one, but falls. Then the Grandfather Bunny gives her a special pair of golden shoes that allow her to be able to jump super high and fast, so she can get the egg deliverede. This book is well-written, but I don't think the illustrations are very good. It is written by Du Bose Heyward, and illustrated by Marjorie Hack.

The Country Bunny and The little Golden Shoes,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Country Bunny and the Little Gold Shoes (Paperback)
In 2004, I am 45 years old, but this book has been a part of my whole life. I was first exposed to it by my mom , and it is part of my earliest childhood easter memories. When I had children, it became part of their earliest memories. They love the story, the pictures, the whole package--it is incredibly readable and captures the attention of even my teenager. They both have their own copies, which they have assured me, will go with them when they leave and so I must order one for myself, since my brother got the one from OUR childhood!!! Make memories!! have a wonderful time.
