Overview

"Seven little rabbits walkin’ down the road,
walking down the road to call on old friend toad.
Over half a million children have counted their way to sleep with beloved seven little rabbits.

Available in its original hardcover format for the first time in twenty years, this delightful counting book, chock full of gloriously endearing illustrations and humorous asides by two-time Caldecott-Medal-winner Barbara Cooney, is sure to be a bedtime favorite for a new generation of bunny lovers.

One by one, as they walk down the road, seven little rabbits get tired and find a place to sleep.
