Home for a Bunny is a classic children's book written by Margaret Wise Brown and illustrated by Garth Williams. It was first published as a Little Golden Book in 1956 and has remained a beloved story for generations. The story follows a small bunny searching for a home in the springtime. Along the way, he encounters different animals—a robin, a frog, and a groundhog—each of whom lives in a different habitat. Garth Williams' soft, detailed, and warm illustrations bring the story to life. His artwork is gentle and inviting, perfectly complementing Margaret Wise Brown’s simple yet lyrical text.
