A parent might reach for this book to celebrate a child's love for drawing and making things, or to gently explore ideas about imagination and friendship. In this deceptively simple story, a pencil and a pair of scissors create two paper rabbits. They are just paper and ink until they find and eat a real carrot, which magically transforms them into real, twitching, hopping rabbits. The book beautifully illustrates the power of creation and the blurry line between what is imagined and what is real. Its minimal text and iconic collage art make it perfect for preschoolers, sparking conversations about creativity, friendship, and what it means to be alive. It's a wonderful choice for nurturing a child's imaginative spirit.
