I have read this book

This book is really sad. I cried but it has a happy ending.

The bunny was my favourite character. It was a middling nice and scary story. I would recommend it to my family

I really enjoyed this book but I found it a little sad. I didn't like the part where he gets put out to be burned. This time I read it to my toy rabbit to get him to sleep and he enjoyed it but I think he found it a little shocking!

This is a good read even though it is a sad book. Its about toys being loved
