Tulliver is a little rabbit who hates washing his face. One day he decides he has had enough and leaves home to live in a burrow under a big oak tree at the far end of the field. When nighttime comes, and Tulliver's burrow is not finished, a very hungry, muddy, and miserable rabbit settles down to sleep. Perhaps he isn't ready to leave home after all? Diana Reynolds Roome's playful text and Susan Winter's beautiful illustrations make this an ideal book for reading aloud.
