The Rabbit Who Had Her Own Light Gail Van Kleeck

When a lop-eared pet rabbit is freed by her dying owner she is begrudgingly befriended by an arrogant brown rabbit who leads her to his underground home. This home is inhabited by Decent Rabbits, who carry flashlights and sometimes lie to one another in order to be liked. Wanting to fit in, the lop-eared rabbit, who has a light that shines from inside her, learns to be a Decent Rabbit, which causes her to lose her light. This tender tale of how she finds it again is about life and love and joy and sorrow and the light that lives in each of us. The "Conversational Questions" at the end of this fable add a unique dimension to its meaningful message. They are designed to inspire both the adults and the children who read it to be their authentic selves, to celebrate their own inner light and to seek that light in others.
