"""Oh, Fairy, I have had enough! Being a bunny is frightfully tough! I'd love to change just for one day, To see the world in a different way.""

Uplifting, humorous and full of surprise, ""The Grass May Not Be Greener"" is a charming tale about a rabbit who learns to accept himself as he is and enjoy it. Lawrence teaches the important life lesson that even if other people's circumstances seem better than our own, in reality this is often not the case. This empowering adventure is sure to entertain and enrich young learners of all ages and be a firm bedtime favourite!

Bunny has had enough of his boring life. Good fortune is bestowed upon him when he bumps into a fairy who helps him transform into a bee, an elephant, a snake and a fish for a day. What do you think he discovers?

Being a mother of three children Hilary Lawrence understands what an important part strong core values and beliefs have in our children's development. In todays world having a strong north is essential! Lessons which children learn from loved ones and from their education enrich, teach and give direction not only in the early years of development, but all through life. Lawrence's books are based on famous proverbs which have been part of British culture for hundreds of years. Too many times in history lessons similar to these have been lost and not successfully passed through the generations. Her books remind us of these sayings and bring them to life in beautifully illustrated rhyming stories which appeal to young children. In doing so she hopes to protect them for generations to come.
