A Friend for Christmas
by Mike Martin
Good things come to those who face their fears.
Robbie Rabbit lived in a warren in a big city with his wife Rowena Rabbit and their nine kits. He called it their rabbit apartment. Robbie and his family were hunkering down for winter when an unexpected visitor makes an appearance.
A Friend for Christmas is the heartwarming tale of a very brave rabbit who faces his fears and makes a new friend at the magical time of the year. He learns that friends can come in all shapes and sizes and Robbie and his family discover the joy of Christmas.
This beautifully illustrated book is suitable for children of all ages. Especially those who still believe in the magic of Christmas.

This was an absolutely adorable and heart-warming story, perfect for kids this holiday season. The illustrations are wonderful, and will easily capture young readers’ attention. They fit the story well, and I think my favorite ones were when all the little rabbits were pictured. The story itself teaches kids not to judge people by their appearance, or based on what they think they know because of where someone comes from. It teaches them how to move past prejudice and maybe make an unexpected friend along the way. This is a great story to read anytime with your littles, but would also make a great gift for a book advent calendar leading up to Christmas!
