    “A story of a young bunny who expresses his desire to escape and explore the world, seeking a sense of adventure and independence, and a gentle steadfast responding mother, reassuring him that her love knows no bounds, she will always be there, ready to follow him, shapeshifting to catch him in any form necessary. A good read for anybody. A friend gifted it to me last year for my 30th birthday and I cried. Illustrations by artist Clement Hurd. <3”

    “Classics are classics for a reason- and while I do think this is a metaphor for codependency and addiction, it’s also about the love of a mother 🥹 A mother bunny! The most prolific mothers we have.”
