From Caledcott Honor winner Leo Lionni, this is the perfect "tail" for bunny fans everywhere! 

A tale of two rabbits that celebrates creativity and crafting, from four-time Caldecott Honor winner Leo Lionni.

“Let's, make rabbits,” say the scissors to the pencil, and, before the reader’s eyes, two rabbits appear—one drawn by the pencil, the other cut from brightly patterned paper by the scissors. When the rabbits are hungry, the scissors and the pencil provide paper carrots. But one day the taste of a real carrot leads to a magical surprise. Readers will delight in this imaginative tale from four-time Caldecott Honor Winner Leo Lionni.
Leo Lionni wrote and illustrated more than 40 highly acclaimed children’s books. He received the 1984 American Institute of Graphic Arts Gold Medal and was a four-time Caldecott Honor Winner—for Inch by Inch, Frederick, Swimmy, and Alexander and the Wind-Up Mouse. Leo Lionni died in October of 1999 at his home in Tuscany, Italy, at the age of 89. View titles by Leo Lionni
“A wonderful combination of collage and pencil drawing provides a lesson in art appreciation as well as a tribute to imaginative reality.” —School Library Journal

“Fabricated by a creative pencil and pair of scissors, two jolly bunnies make a surprising discovery in this characteristic bit of Lionnian whimsy.” —Publishers Weekly
