After Mother Rabbit forbids him to go to the circus until he cleans his playroom, Little Rabbit sneaks off and informs the ringmaster of his act involving the "Mysterious Marvel of a Maternal Monstrosity." It's more than just a great setup: what follows is wholly satisfying--and surprising. Delicate acrylic illustrations evidence an unerring eye for the detritus of a child's play space.
