First published more than 50 years ago, Spotty is a tale of belonging. In a family of entirely white bunnies, Spotty knows he looks different. Though his family loves him, they leave him behind when they go to Grandpa's birthday party. "It's just because of your brown spots," his mother says, imagining how upset Grandpa would be if he saw Spotty.
Wanting desperately to be included, Spotty even tries spot remover. Then he writes a note: "Dear Mum, I love you all but I have to leave you." And he sets out on his own to seek acceptance.
This edition of the original 1940s classic, with its vintage pictures and optimistic ending, offers a story that still needs to be told.
