About the Book

Author Marie Mead (http://www.celebratingrabbits.com) says:

Rabbits: Gentle Hearts, Valiant Spirits is a book of true stories about rescued rabbits.  My inspiration for the book came from Kali, a fuzzy lop-eared bunny rescued from a preschool classroom, where she’d been mistreated and neglected. Kali turned out to be such a surprise: a strength of will and presence that I never imagined in such a small, quiet, fragile being.

I wanted to write a book that captures the essence of rabbits – their joie de vivre as well as their independence and individual personalities. I also felt moved to expose the common plight of domestic rabbits in a way that would allow the stories to remain uplifting and inspirational and to acknowledge the people who recognize rabbits as the treasures they are.
