Summary: Great Children's Book
Comment: First published almost sixty years ago and never out of print since, this book is the heartwarming story of a young bunny that wishes to run away and the mother who loves him so much that she'll follow him to the ends of the Earth. Throughout the course of the book, the "runaway bunny" and his protective mother engage in a make-believe game of chase. It's a comforting tale of a mother's love for her child and the length in which she'll go to make sure that he stays out of harm's way.
This book was a joy to read. The storyline is simple enough to keep a young child's interest but thought provoking enough to inspire discussion afterwards. The book's illustrations are vivid enough to add meaning to the tale but simple enough not to draw attention away from the story. All in all, I can see why this story has remained so popular over the years. It has everything you could ever want in a book aimed at preschool and kindergarten age children.

Summary: A heartwarming, beautifully written book, a MUST-HAVE !!!
Comment: I first heard a few lines from this book on a T.V. show, and I was in tears! I ran straight to my computer and ordered it. This book is a must have for every child (and parent!). I have never read a book expressing the love of a mother for her child so beautifully. The mother bunny becomes whatever it takes for her to "find" her little bunny as he dreams of different things to be to run away from her. The mother bunny doesn't condemn him, but conforms to his thoughts and dreams and "chases" after him as he tells her what he will become and how he'll run away. I loved the way the mother spoke so lovingly to her little bunny, letting him know that no matter where he went, she'd find him. My son loves the brilliantly colorful images on every other page. It is a nice contrast to the black and white writing in between. This has become a favorite in my home and I intend to give this book as a gift to any and every mother (or mother-to-be) that I know!

Summary: Runaway Bunny
Comment: This book is wonderful. My son is in an accelerated reading program at school, he brought this book home last night to read and we had such a great time with it. When the story starts off with the little bunny telling his mom that he'll run away and she says she'll follow him I just thought . . . that is love. I told my son that he was the little bunny and I was the mommy bunny, so throughout the story we pretended that those characters were us. The look on my son's face was priceless, I could tell that he knew that his mommy loves him dearly (children need reassurance). He was so proud to hear that I would follow him like that. The color illustrations kept us laughing. They were just so sweet and cute. This book is a classic. I would recommend it to any parent. I didn't see it as a way a mother holds a child back from adventuring out, but as a way a mother/father can deal with a little child wanting to runaway. My son has told me a time or two that he was going to runaway (I believe all kids do - I can remember telling my mom) next time he tells me that I'll just remind him of this story and that I am a mommy bunny! Call me crazy, but I'm assuming that God has read this book as well. After all He keeps running after each and every one of us. Children of all ages need to know that.
