Little Bunny, who is afraid of the dark, longs for a friend; both problems are solved when he encounters the Moon, who carries him up to the sky to meet the stars. The writing is rather twee, but the book offers Runaway Bunny–like reassurances, including an elegant white rabbit that could have sprung from the hand of Clement Hurd.

One snowy morning, Little Mouse ventures out to collect firewood. Upon realizing that he's gathered more than he can pull, he enlists the help of several animal friends. The story doesn't have much of an arc--a blizzard upsetting the friends' mission lasts two pages--but the art is dazzling: although restricted to a wintry woodland palette, each spread is unique.

One winter day, Rabbit discovers a tempting apple hanging too high for him to pick. Other animals join him one by one, and they finally reach the apple by standing on one another's shoulders. In the attractive illustrations for this quietly amusing Turkish import, the apple is a spot of bright color against the falling snow and the rich earth tones of the trees and animals.
