What is Cross Rabbit about?

Rabbit is furious. The mice are making far too much noise as they play in the snow, and he desperately wants some peace and quiet. Percy the park keeper tries to solve the problem by finding the mice somewhere else to play. At last, Rabbit settles down for a nap—but in Percy’s park, quiet never lasts for long. Soon, another noisy surprise is on its way, in this funny winter adventure about friendship, patience and helping others.
