Rabbits don't belong in the farmyard. So it creates quite a stir when Rupert pops up. He tries to make himself useful, but he can't cock-a-doodle-do like Cockerel, and when he tries to lay an egg like Dora the duck, it's a disaster! Luckily Rupert is good at digging, which soon leads to the most unexpected farm job of all... This funny farmyard caper from the creators of Charlie Crow in the Snow is now available as a chunky board book with a glittery cover. The perfect book for an Easter gift - or any time of the year!
