A gentle, dreamlike tale about heading home in the night. A mother rabbit carries her young bunny home through the dark, quiet streets. The lights are on in many of the animal neighborsê windows, so the bunny can see, hear and smell whatês happening inside: a pie being pulled out of the oven, a party, a goodbye hug. When they reach home, the father rabbit tucks the bunny into bed. But the bunny continues to wonder about the neighborsê activities. –Are the party guests saying goodnight?” Will the one saying goodbye –take the last train home?” Until finally, the tired bunny falls asleep. The perfect story for the end of the day.

5 stars! A child bunny is being carried home by mama bunny on the street, and wonders about the lives of the various people he sees in the windows. Call it childlike wonder or innate human curiosity that kids and adults alike possess, but the ending punchline (which I shall not spoil here) nails how life is finding ordinary in the special, and the special in the ordinary. Illustrations were amazing - the charcoal drawing style really brings out that night stroll feels!
