"First published September 1944." Newbery Medal, 1945
Summary:
New folks are coming to live in the Big House. The animals of Rabbbit Hill wonder if they will plant a garden and thus be good providers. The small creatures of a Connecticut countryside-each with a distinct personality-create a warm and humorous story. Although they are happy that a new family is moving into the empty farmhouse, the animals on Rabbit Hill fear the newcomers may bring traps and guns.
