Description

It has been a while since Folks lived in the Big House, and an even longer time has passed since there has been a garden at the House. All the animals of the Hill are very excited about the new Folks moving in, and they wonder how things are going to change. It’s only a matter of time before the animals of the Hill find out just who is moving in, and they may be a little bit surprised when they do.

School Library Journal Review

Gr 3-6‘Robert Lawson's Newbery award-winning Rabbit Hill (Viking, 1944; Puffin pap., 1977) is a first rate audiobook. Listeners are introduced to Uncle Analdas and his community of woodland animals who are anticipating the arrival of the "new folks," the people who are moving to Rabbit Hill. When the new folks eventually become part of the animals' lives, both benefit from their association with the other. Narrator Barbara Caruso's use of different voices and dialects enlivens the story. Although the story probably will not have broad appeal, this version would serve to enhance collections of Newbery Award winners.-Marcia Brightman, Orange Elementary Schools, MA (c) Copyright 2010.
