"Oh, Fairy, I have had enough!
Being a bunny is frightfully tough!
I'd love to change just for one day,
To see the world in a different way."
Uplifting, humorous, and full of surprise, "The Grass May Not Be Greener" is a charming tale about a rabbit who learns to accept himself as he is and enjoy it. Lawrence teaches the important life lesson that even if other people's circumstances seem better than our own, in reality, this is often not the case. This empowering adventure is sure to entertain and enrich young learners of all ages and be a firm bedtime favourite!
Bunny has had enough of his boring life.
Good fortune is bestowed upon him when he bumps into a fairy who helps him transform into a bee, an elephant, a snake, and a fish for a day.
What do you think he discovers?
Perfect for:
