Kids Love Lettice - a perfect role model


No wonder kids love Lettice.  Nibble, nibble, hop, hop – each day is an adventure for the cute independent and rather ambitious little rabbit called, Lettice.  We have a few Lettice stories – they are really cute and engaging – and the character is a perfect role model for an self-determining toddler with a mind of her own. 

Our latest is ‘Lettice, The Flying Rabbit’, a sweet story of this rabbit’s yearning to fly.  She flaps her arms and ears, but can’t seem to lift off the ground.  But her dream of flying eventually does come true as she flips through the skies on a flashy pink aeroplane!  What more could a little girl, I mean rabbit, wish for.  Not only are the stories ‘fresh’, the illustrations bring to life every little girl’s dreams.


The name, Lettice, is not a spelling error, or just a play on a veg that bunnies eat, but apparently means ‘joy and happiness’.  The author Mandy Stanley is the illustrator too, and uses her own love of rabbits as her inspiration for her cute little character.  Look out for this series, which includes 10 titles and is a favourite of ours.
