About the Book
- A 3rd grade class in Michigan sent a stuffed bunny around the United States to family and friends during the 2009-2010 school year. Their goal was to learn a bit about the hometowns where the bunny visited "host families". The bunny's name was Road Rabbit. He criss-crossed the country visting states from Oregon to Florida. The host famlies were simply asked to send a letter to the class, telling them about their family and hometowns.
This book shares Road Rabbit's visit with hosts John and Laura Alexander from February 1 - March 11, 2010. Due to John's frequent travel, Road Rabbit visited more locations than normal, including stops in Florida, Ohio, Michigan and California.
Follow the journey which included a visit to a book signing with an author who hiked the entire Appalachian Trail, to John's hometown, an Aunt's 95th birthday party, a stop along South Beach to see the Atlantic Ocean, a tour of a Historic Rose Garden in Sacramento, a walking tour of San Francisco, and a visit to a winery in Napa Valley.
John prepared this book for his cousin, Steven Styles, a student in Mrs. Damm's 3rd grade class at Kirk Elementary School. The students enjoyed seeing the photos and, hopefully, learned a bit about the parts of the country that Road Rabbit visited with John.
The interesting part of this project was seeing how excited adults got by learning about this journey. They loved posing with Road Rabbit and suggested many places for him to see and experience. Most adults wished that they could have done something like this when they were in school.
So, whether you are young or old - enjoy the book, plan to expand your knowledge and sense of adventure through travel - whether its just around your town or far away. Grab a bunny and a camera and take your own Road Rabbit on a trip. It will be good for your heart and lift your spirits!
