"Where's my book?" wonders Gray Rabbit one fine morning. As he surveys his messy room, he decides the only way to find his book is to clean up -- but there's always one pesky item that doesn't belong!

White Rabbit's color book, is considered a non-fiction narrative book. It talks about a bunny that explores primary colors through hopping from bucket to bucket of paint. He discovers colors like green and purple in the bucket exploration and children love to make the predictions of his new colors when he is hopping in them. It can be very interactive with the children's predictions and you can also pretend to be bunnies! I love this book. Preschoolers love it too!
