Not a little kids' bunny book!
This week I read The Green Ember by S.D. Smith and Illustrated by Zach Franzen. Wow! This story really grabbed me and took me down the rabbit hole. It's about these two rabbit kids, Heather and Picket, whose peaceful home is attacked by a wolf army. (The chase scene at the beginning of the book had my heart pounding.)
They get taken in by this group of rabbit resistance that are trying to rebuild their society after a bitter betrayal destroyed their king. Heather and Picket's family is involved in the whole secret history. Turns out rabbit parents, just like humans, don't bother to tell their kids the good stuff either.
There is an evil crow king and a war council and a secret heir to the crown. And Heather and Picket will have to make choices and sacrifices as they fight to build a better world. So I will totally be back for the other books in this 4-book series to see how they do it.
On the Dude-A-Rrific Summer Reading Bingo card, this book fits: NOT A HUMAN STORY, BOOK WITH A MAP, NOT WHAT I EXPECTED, and SWORDS AND CROWNS.
