Rabbit seeks a perfect place to live. Bear supports his friend in trying to find perfection but nothing makes rabbit happy. When rabbit finally begins to feel they have the perfect place, they realise that what they dreamed isn't reality and gets a rather unpleasant suprise.

I was laughing my heart off when I know that Rabbit was standing on a huge pile of poo!

This book made me laugh a lot - especially when Rabbit ended up on an island made of bird poo! Bear was calm and kind even when Rabbit was being silly. My favourite quote was 'this island smells weird'. It reminded me that things don't have to be perfect to be fun.

Overall I rate it 4 stars instead of 5 because I think I should have more detail(explanation)to some bits.The moral of the story is to never give up and to say sorry,even if that means starting all over again.

It was funny. My favourite moment was when rabbit stood in a mountain of poo and thought it was chocolate.

This "Bear and Rabbit" book was hilarious, and even though it took me about twenty minutes to read, it was a great read. The humour is generally toilet-based, so this book is great for younger readers ( around 6-9-year-olds ).
