Mei Mei the Bunny is Laufey's picture book debut about a bunny learning to believe in herself through music.

Experience a heartwarming tale of self-belief in this enchanting picture book by GRAMMY Award-winning musician Laufey.

Meet Mei Mei, a little bunny with a big dream—to spread joy through her music! As her debut recital at the H'Opera House draws near, Mei Mei diligently practises playing her violin, yet struggles with her unsettled nerves. What will happen if she hits a wrong note?

This charming story features the debut authorship of world-renowned musician Laufey. Her lyrical text provides a comforting tale of honing confidence and also includes child-friendly definitions of musical terminology. The cosy illustrations have been provided by multi-award-winning illustrator Lauren O'Hara, whose cuddly colour palette provides a world children will want to explore again and again!

Join Mei Mei in this touching story about embracing imperfections and finding the courage to pursue your dreams. Perfect for young readers learning about perseverance, this delightful picture book will inspire children to believe in their own unique talents and abilities.
