Average rating
Gorgeously illustrated and with a classic feel, this is a brilliantly funny story of a rabbit and a bear who discover that things are always better when they’re shared with a friend. Ideal for readers moving on from picture books.
‘A perfect animal double-act.’ (The Times, Book of the Week)
Rabbit is surprised: some of the trees in the valley seem to be flying south for the winter.
His friend Bear is sure that trees can’t fly.
Then there’s a loud CRUNCH! from Very Near By. It sounds like the world’s largest rabbit, eating the world’s largest carrot.
There’s a new creature in Rabbit and Bear’s valley, and he’s trying to Change Everything.
From novelist and playwright Julian Gough, and the winner of the Roald Dahl Funny Prize, Jim Field, this is a tale of friendship, Progess, and all kinds of getting muddy.
’Rabbit’s Bad Habits is a breath of fresh air in children’s fiction, a laugh-out-loud story of rabbit and wolf and bear, of avalanches and snowmen. The sort of story that makes you want to send your children to bed early, so you can read it to them.’ Neil Gaiman

I think I thought that rabbit thought that the bite was a real monster that was a bigger rabbit eating a big big tree. It wasn’t a monster it was a beaver and then he wrote a note that said it was bad news for rabbit. I thought it was funny when he went ahhhh and his arms were everywhere and he rushed back into his hole which was full of water

Another fantastic book from the Rabbit & Bear series. Such lovely illustrations . Great stories. Love that the books in this series can be read on their own or in different order as they are all individual stories

My favourite bit was when Woodpecker's tail feathers came off and you could see her bare bottom. Castor was my favourite charater because he did all of these naughty things. I would recommend this book to other friends because I think hety would like it very much.

I liked the beaver because he was really funny. He made a really good dam.

I think they can make the beavers club more exciting and decorated it

This book was very funny especially when woodpeckers tail feathers came off and we saw his bum! My favourite character was Castor because he made a cool construction plan.

I think it could be a bit more exciting.

I found this book a bit boring. Also I don’t think the word fart should be in a young childrens book.
