Inthis companion to Nest and Fetch, Hurley uses a string of verbs, one per spread, to highlight the actions of a family of cottontail rabbits overthe course of one day. Once again, the ultra-limited text lets Hurley's crispdigital illustrations do the talking--a morning of playing in (and nibbling on)the grass turns frightening as a hawk appears overhead ("freeze"), quicklyfollowed by a fox ("warn" "run"). The rabbits escape to an underground burrow("hide"), returning to their tree hollow home safe and sound after waiting outa rainstorm. An author's note offers enlightening details about the habits ofcottontails.--Publisher's Weekly "November 2, 2015 "
