Bookroo's summary

Hare cherishes his solitude and his turnip patch, but when rabbits move in next door, they extend a friendly invitation. Preferring his own company, Hare declines, until a menacing boar threatens the peace. As danger looms, Hare faces a choice: remain isolated or join forces with his new neighbors. Can unexpected friendship offer a path to safety and happiness?

From the publisher

From internationally acclaimed picture book creator Steve Small comes an “entertaining…delightful” (Booklist, starred review) story of unexpected friendship and the happiness that sharing can bring. Hare is proud of his turnip patch and doesn’t want to share it with anyone. When the rabbits move in nearby, they invite Hare for carrot soup but he’s much happier being alone. Still, when a huge boar comes to the woods in search of his next meal, Hare feels he should warn his neighbors. Can they find a way to help each other stay out of danger?
