Hop

A quiet, meditative look into the terror and ruthlessness of the natural world. Mom Rabbit leads her litter of Mini Rabbits along to hop. listen. graze. But then it's time to FREEZE. because a fox has appeared. That fox doesn't seem so cute now, eh! A predator! The circle of life - not so cute!

This follows in the usual genre of “children's lit that uses rabbits as an allegory for the existential despair we feel when acknowledging the randomness of suffering” - in other words, this can be used as a prelude to Watership Down. A rabbit's life is one of idyllic, green pastures, Cornish hills, and, occasionally, ABSOLUTE TERROR.
