Rabbit Hill
Rabbit Hill is a short novel about animals who live on a hill with an old house and garden. They are waiting to see if the new owners are nice Folks. Will they be nice to the mice and rabbits, will they bring traps and guns, will they have a mean cat or dog?
It has been a while since Folks lived in the Big House, and an even longer time has passed since there has been a garden at the House. All the animals of the Hill are very excited about the new Folks moving in, and they wonder how things are going to change.
It’s only a matter of time before the animals of the Hill find out just who is moving in, and they may be a little bit surprised when they do.
