When Papa doesn't return from a nocturnal honey-gathering expedition, Cress holds out hope, but her mother assumes the worst. It’s a dangerous world for rabbits, after all. Mama moves what’s left of the Watercress family to the basement unit of the Broken Arms, a run-down apartment oak with a suspect owl landlord, a nosy mouse superintendent, a rowdy family of squirrels and a pair of songbirds who broadcast everyone’s business. Can a dead tree full of annoying neighbours, and no Papa, ever be home?In the timeless spirit of E. B. White and The Wind and the Willows – yet thoroughly of its time – this read-aloud and read-alone gem for animal lovers of all ages features an unforgettable cast that leaps off the page in glowing illustrations by David Litchfield.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: GBItem Height: 238mmItem Length: 160mmItem Width: 25mmItem Weight: 650gAuthor: Gregory MaguireIllustrator: David LitchfieldContributor: David Litchfield (Illustrated by)Genre: Children's BooksRelease Year: 2022 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
