What is Bobtail and His Floppy Ears about?

Bobtail the rabbit looks different from his brothers and sisters because his ears are floppy. At first, he worries that he does not belong, but a woodland adventure gives him the chance to show what he can do. As Bobtail explores the forest and faces unexpected challenges, he discovers that being different is nothing to hide. His floppy ears are part of what makes him special, and he learns that the truest way to be a rabbit is simply to be himself.
