Illustrated by
Marije Tolman.
Sick of being called "cute," rabbit Toby adopts a biker look and a macho persona. However, he rethinks his new lifestyle after unintentionally alienating an attractive female. The story line is a touch too glib, but there's nothing cutesy about the delicate-line illustrations, which are full of amusing details (e.g., a bird uses Toby's discarded motorcycle helmet to gather flowers).
