*spoiler warning*
This book was very different from most of the Animal Ark books I've read. This one had no "animal crisis", at least not a medical/safety one, like most of them do. Instead it focused on Mandy's new friend John and his project studying wild rabbits. The "main" plot of the book, the baby bunnies, were not really a part of the plot until more then halfway through. It was a nice change to have some family drama in the series, to have a kid struggling to adjust to new situations at home instead of everything always being about the animals, but it was a bit of a letdown that there wasn't the usual urgency of "will the animal live" or whatever. I liked the ending, how John finally had a way to keep the baby rabbits but at the show more same time take care of the problem of what to do with them while he is a way at school, and for once the bratty little Imogen was actually fairly nice. show less

Ben M. Baglio was born in New York in 1960, and grew up in a small town in New Jersey. Baglio studied English Literature at the University of Pennsylvania. After graduation, he worked as a children's book editor in New York City. Five years later, a job at publishing house in England became available and he moved there to accept the position. Some show more time after that, Baglio decided to try his own hand at writing and created the characters of Mandy Hope and James Hunter. Their adventures became known as the Animal Ark series. The books originally were published in England, under the pseudonym Lucy Daniels, and have since gone on to be published in the USA and translated into 15 languages. There is also a live-action television series based on the books in England. Some of Ben Baglio's titles are The Brave Bunny, Sheepdog In The Snow, and Spaniel in a Stocking. Baglio has also contributed one title, The First Olympics, to the Choose Your Own Adventure gamebook series. Baglio also wrote the Horseshoe Trilogies. (Bowker Author Biography) show less
