Summary: K&Pgrades enjoy the wistful boy's wish for a wild rabbit pet
Review: A young boy wishes for a pet of his own.(Sister has mama cat which provides ALL the pets Mama will allow) He silently sits and tries to make the wild rabbit hear his thoughts. The actions take place over a period of days or weeks.

Girls as well as boys listen with close attention. As there are too few books which leave the girls and the boys satisfied,I treasured it in my classroom as well as at home.

I might warn new teachers: beware, someone may bring a pet rabbit for the class after reading it! That is a great experience but has real pitfalls! Mrs Mac

Summary: A childhood classic!
Review: As a small child I constantly requested that my parents check this book out during our weekly visits to our local public library. As an experienced educator I constantly check the book out to use with the children in my class. Through enchanting illustrations and the use of visual language the author, Aileen Fisher, has been successful in capturing every child's dream of having their own pet. Listen Rabbit is a wonderful example of all that is good about childhood and should be a part of every classroom and home library.
