Lawrence

Lawrence's mother has dressed him in fancy outfits since he was a baby bunny, but he finally finds a way to persuade her to let him be naked like the other animals.

In this funny, charming, and oh-so-relatable picture book, meet a young bunny named Lawrence who is determined to decide what he wears--or doesn't wear.

Description

In this funny, charming, and oh-so-relatable picture book, meet a young bunny named Lawrence who is determined to decide what he wears—or doesn't wear.

Ever since he was a tiny bunny, Lawrence's mother has dressed him up in all the most fashionable clothes—the brightest colours and the most interesting styles. Lawrence wears homemade sweater suits and inflatable helium balloon pants. The only problem? Lawrence hates wearing clothes and longs to hop naked through the fields—just like all the other bunnies.

So Lawrence comes up with an ingenious plan to turn the tables on his mother.... Ultimately, the mother-son duo devise a way to put their considerable creative talents to use, in a way that makes both of them happy.

In this picture book that's perfect for Easter and year-round, kids will laugh out loud (and understand!) Lawrence's quest for independence, just as parents will identify with how hard it is to let go of your one-and-only special bunny....
