Toby is "a very cute rabbit" but he doesn't want to be cute. He decides to make a change. Sunglasses, a pierced ear, and a tattoo aren't quite enough, so he gets a motorcycle, a helmet, and a long brown coat. He thinks he looks "cool," but when an attractive girl rabbit calls him a "creep," Toby realizes his mistake and decides that being cute wasn't so bad after all.
Amazing illustrations, filled with minute details of life in Toby's community.. the animals, their homes, and the fields of wildflowers... a brilliant picture book.

If an entire nation could seek its freedom, why not a girl?
As the Revolutionary War begins, thirteen-year-old Isabel wages her own fight...for freedom.
