Description

From the award-winning creator of I Love Books comes a humorous and heartfelt story about the value of kindness and the magic of making new friends. Oh, Carrots! is the perfect choice for young children as they begin to navigate their first friendships.

Mr. Rabbit lives alone, and you know what? He likes it! He enjoys peaceful moments spent reading, drinking cups of tea, and gardening--but sometimes, it can get a little too quiet . . .

Luckily, spring has arrived, and that means Mr. Rabbit can plant his favorite vegetable--carrots!

With some love, sunshine, and a little bit of singing, the carrots begin to grow. But one day, Mr. Rabbit spots something unusual--a wiggling carrot top! He pulls and pulls, and out pops a walking, talking carrot.

Carrot only wants to be Mr. Rabbit's friend, but Mr. Rabbit just wants to be left alone! From leaving soil all over the sofa to rummaging through Mr. Rabbit's books, Carrot's mischievous antics leave the solitary rabbit feeling a bit irritated.

Yet, as the day unfolds, Mr. Rabbit finds himself starting to enjoy the company. He's so used to being all alone that he's never even considered having a friend. Maybe now is the perfect time for that to change.
