| | My Friend Rabbit
by
Eric Rohmann
“Eric Rohmann’s hand-colored relief prints express a vibrant energy through solid black outlines, lightly textured backgrounds and a robust use of color,” said Pat Scales, chair of the 2003 Caldecott Award committee on Rohmann's Medal-winning work. "The black frame cannot contain Rabbit’s enthusiasm in this dramatic visual romp, as the characters tumble and spill from the page and back on again. The artist shows his respect for his audience and keen understanding of picture book design. Whatever they do and wherever they go, children will claim Rabbit as their friend."

In this small-scale, bedtime picture book, Rohmann offers youngsters a taste of power, liberation and joy-and a good joke on the final page.
