Description

“Make way, make way!” cries the rabbit as he speeds down the lane in his carrot car, ears streaming behind him in the wind. The hedgehogs leap into the ditch, the ducks scatter from the pond, and an old tortoise watches from the verge, shaking his head. Nobody in the countryside knows where the rabbit is going in such a hurry, but everyone agrees he looks marvelous doing it, and the carrot car has never once run out of fuel.

Full of storybook humor, this rabbit driving a carrot-shaped car is an irresistible gift for Easter, a child’s birthday, a car enthusiast with a sense of fun or anyone who loves whimsical porcelain. It brings a smile to a nursery shelf, a child’s desk or a breakfast table set for an Easter brunch. Collectors of rabbit-themed pieces will enjoy its playful sense of motion, and it is just the thing for a friend who has just passed a driving test.
