Rabbit Pirates: A Tale of the Spinach MainMonsieur Lapin and Monsieur Blanc are retired pirates who now own the Spinach Main, a restaurant in the south of France famous for its fresh vegetables and excellent cuisine. Business is good until the day Monsieur Reynard, the fox, walks in. What can the rabbits do? They have given up their pirate ways. but the fox is not easily discouraged. And one dark night, when the rabbits are sitting ouside on their terrace, admiring the moon... In this utterly charming and funny story, Judy Cox and Caldecott Medalist Emily Arnold McCully create a French restaurant so convincing we can taste the crunchy vegetables and smell the geraniums. And in Rabbit Pirates they prove once and for all that the rolling pin is mightier than the sword! "Cox's droll delivery and well-chosen details immediately transport readers to sunny southern France."--starred review in Publisher's Weekly |
