In this wonderful story about diversity, a white rabbit falls in love with a black girl and longs to have beautiful dark skin like hers This description may be from another edition of this product.
My daughter is African and Mexican American, so we love books that celebrate African/Latin heritage and this does it beautifully. The illustrations and the rythm of the writing are so well matched. This is one of our favorites.
Very charming book about diversity

This book is great. The illustrations are awesome and the story is beautiful. I bought it to read to my foster children. It's basically about a white rabbit who meets a young black girl and wants to know what he can do to be black and beautiful like her.
Beautiful!

A very sweet story.. beautifully illustrated! As a bilingual mom of a 5 month-old baby, I enjoyed reading this book. Although the title suggest a book in Spanish, it's actually beautifully written in English.
A Beautiful Story About a Beautiful Girl.

I loved this book! We're a bilingual family and when we first read this story in Spanish, my children and I laughed and squealed with delight. The language is uniquely latin, and the author uses the words pu-pu for poop, and pipi for pee which made us really laugh. But the sweetness of the story is really how the little white bunny fell in love with the little black girls' striking beauty, and determined that if he himself could not look like her, then he would seek to marry a black and beautiful rabbit, and perhaps have children who were beautiful and dark.
Excellent book dealing with race and diversity for children.

This is a delightful story about a white bunny who falls in love with a beautiful Black girl. The bunny tries everything to turn himself Black. In the end he marries a Black bunny and they have grey, black and white bunnies. A very positive book which deals with racial bias, and racial differences. A positive story for children of all races.
