After what feels like weeks and weeks of asking, Annie’s parents have said she can have pet rabbits. Before they arrive, she helps her dad make them a perfect home with a cosy hutch and a run to let them nibble the grass in the sunshine.
Little Humbug and Toffee settle in and Annie loves looking after them. Disaster strikes though when she doesn’t quite close the door of their bunny bungalow and Humbug escapes. It’s touch and go, but Annie saves the day!
Featuring two of the cuddliest rabbits you’re likely to meet, this charmingly illustrated story is a perfect mix of family, excitement and reassurance, with plenty of rabbit care tips to boot. A lovely read and, in Barrington Stoke style, accessible for reluctant and dyslexic readers.
Can Annie find her missing bunny before it's caught by the neighbourhood fox? A gentle and heartwarming animal story from worldwide bestseller Holly Webb.

Annie is really excited about her new pet rabbits and can't wait to welcome them into the amazing new home her dad has built for them.
But when Annie is in a rush to get to school the next morning, she doesn't check that the door to the hutch is shut properly, and one of the rabbits, Humbug, escapes.
Can Annie find Humbug in time to save her from the neighbourhood fox …?
Holly Webb was born and grew up in south-east London, but spent a lot of time on the Suffolk coast. As a child, she had two dogs, a cat, and at one point, nine gerbils (an accident). At about ten, Holly fell in love with stories from Ancient Greek myths, which led to studying Latin and Greek, and eventually to reading Classics at university. She worked for five years as a children's fiction editor, before deciding that writing was more fun, and easier to do from a sofa. She started writing several years ago while working as a children’s books editor. She has written over ninety books including the Animal Stories , My Naughty Little Puppy and Maisie Hitchins series for Stripes Publishing. Holly has also written In The Clever Little Kitten for World Book Day and a sequel to The Secret Garden . Holly Webb lives in Berkshire with her husband, children and three cats.
