What follows is a competition neither of them can win. He stretches his arms; Big Nutbrown Hare has longer arms. He hops as high as he can; his father hops higher. It goes on until the little one is almost too sleepy to think anymore and looks out past the thornbushes into the big dark night, because nothing could be farther than the sky.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSam McBratney and Anita Jeram published that in 1994 and it has been the book people give at the birth of a child ever since.

There is no crowd, no plot and no noise, just two hares on a green bank, so a child who cannot follow a story yet can still follow the pictures, and a parent reading it at the end of the day is not being asked to perform.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBoard book, 24 pages, 5.94 by 5.19 in with a 0.54 in spine, by Sam McBratney, illustrated by Anita Jeram.
