One day, Rabbit, who lived with many other rabbits, tried to grab a carrot and ended up falling into a hole. The hole, however, was not the right one to its burrow, so it started to become afraid of its new surrounding. It eventually fell out of the hole and met an aardvark. At first Rabbit was fearful of this new animal because it looked so different, but they became friends. Rabbit learned to not be afraid of something just because it was a new experience.

I liked the message of the book and how it was presented to kids. Younger kids will like it because the illustrations are humorous. Older students could read it to find the theme.
