When Papa doesn't return from a nocturnal honey-gathering expedition, Cress holds out hope, but her mother assumes the worst. It’s a dangerous world for rabbits, after all. Mama moves what’s left of the Watercress family to the basement unit of the Broken Arms, a run-down apartment oak with a suspect owl landlord, a nosy mouse super, a rowdy family of squirrels, and a pair of songbirds who broadcast everyone’s business. Can a dead tree full of annoying neighbors, and no Papa, ever be \u003ci\u003ehome\u003c\/i\u003e? In the timeless spirit of E. B. White and \u003ci\u003eThe Wind and the Willows—\u003c\/i\u003eyet thoroughly of its time—this read-aloud and read-alone gem for animal lovers of all ages features an unforgettable cast that leaps off the page in glowing illustrations by David Litchfield. This tender meditation on coming-of-age invites us to flourish wherever we find ourselves.","brand":"Gregory Maguire","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":52814020706464,"sku":"9781536211009","price":13.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0582\/8637\/5072\/files\/BNCImageAPI_52b0b56d-ec3a-4e3f-b535-f7c69bd666bb.jpg?v=1757703361","url":"https:\/\/rivendell-books.com\/products\/9781536211009","provider":"Rivendell Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
