SuitabookThe Teazles’ Baby Bunny
Susan Bagnall
- Reading
- Look through the pictures together, pause for the child’s reactions, and let them lead. Afterwards, invite questions about what makes a family and what the bunny may feel.
- Themes
- Adoption and belonging: The Teazle rabbits adopt a baby bunny, and the book is presented as a gentle introduction to adoption and a child being wanted by a new family. The book presents this favourably.
- Worth knowing
- Adoption is addressed directly, but the ending, the baby bunny’s earlier experiences and the depth given to birth-family feelings are not clear. Read alongside the child’s own questions.
