When Father Rabbit sends his three little rabbits off into the world, he tells them to dig themselves safe burrows, because, he warns, ""if a fox comes around, you must hide in the ground."" Giddy with their new independence, two of the little rabbits do not heed their father's warning. Only their sister takes the time to dig a safe burrow, working day and night while her brothers play. Her hard work pays off, for a sly, hungry fox does indeed come around, threatening the three little rabbits! This engaging folktale, a Balkan version of ""The Three Little Pigs,"" is illustrated with great charm by the internationally acclaimed artist Ivan Gantschev.

Award-winning illustrator Ivan Gantschev has a special genius for snow-filled settings as fans of his feisty Snow Leopards already know. In this deep winter tale, Rabbit is running to avoid some Christmas Day hunters when he falls into a snow covered cave--right on top of a hibernating bear! Roused from hibernation, Bear tells Rabbit about a strange dream of a woman giving birth on a starlit desert night surrounded by animals. Rabbit realizes that Bear has had a Christmas dream. Rabbit tells his new friend about the birth of Jesus on that night long ago. Perfect for Christmas sharing, this story shows the birth of Jesus from a truly unique perspective. Gantschev's warm watercolors give a feeling of coziness and brightness that is sure to appeal to parents and children alike.
