Bunny Cottontail longs to be an Easter bunny. And even though Cottontail becomes the mother of twenty-one bunnies--or perhaps because of the kind of mother she is--she gets her wish at last. A story kids will enjoy chiefly for the pictures drawn to a small child's taste. This edition includes a little golden shoes necklace.

This famous song from the opera has been transformed into a lushly illustrated picture book. The book casts a nostalgic look back at a simpler time when good hammocks or swimming holes were tickets to a peaceful summer's day--a far cry from the original context of the song. The melody line and guitar chords are included on the final page.
