Little Rabbit and the Meanest Mother on Earth

Written by Kate Klise
Illustrated by M. Sarah Klise
Harcourt, 2010
$17, ages 4-8, 32 pages

A grumpy little rabbit tries to pass off his mother as a scary circus act after she grounds him for not doing what she says.

The only problem is, she doesn't look at all like the act he's promised, and now Little Rabbit has nothing terrible to show the circus crowd.

Or does he?

In this adorable picture book, Little Rabbit tries to get back at his mother for not taking him to the circus, then realizes she's the last person he wants to hurt.

One day, while building a castle in his playroom, Little Rabbit hears a circus parading into town and scampers out to the sitting room to ask his mother if they can go.

His mother tells him, "Of course," if he cleans up his playroom -- after all, he hasn't put anything away all day and his clothes are tumbling out of drawers.
