(2) 4-6 Homeschooled Emma is nervous the night before starting fifth grade at a traditional school, but the lost domesticated rabbit she and her father rescue is a good distraction. Her first day goes badly; complicating matters is Jack, a special needs boy in her class. Emma's anxiety about social dynamics and her close relationships with family members are well drawn. Facts about pet rabbits divide chapters and imply broader meanings to contemplate.
