Like your lagomorph Lilly said, "Yes, I think it's that good! ...It's just wonderful!"

Bookmark is a wonderful touch; looking at Snowflake smiling back at me, I can't help but feel his warm fatherly presence. Bilbo's nervousness, Cody's bitterness about work, their moon-song, that certain occasional mind-meld betwixt Animal and Keeper, it all seemed to speak to me directly. I'll stop there so as not to give too much away...

The unique artistry in the book is also very much to my liking; I have never seen inking preserve character so well. Particularly the characters' eyes, such variety, yet each conveying such love.

Crystal and our cats all enjoyed the book too, and each felt it good enough to rub their chins against it.

My wife Jodi made fun of me being so engrossed in a bunny book (Jodi pretends not to have a soft spot for bunnies.) Then I showed her the photo of Bilbo. Jodi found Bilbo so handsome, I thought she was going to drool; I've never seen her gaze at a picture so long.

The antler-outfit made me think of the Jackelope pictures Moonhare sent, which I've attached.

I'll add a link when I can get a decent Bilbo button to have web-surfers click on, I can't decide if I should mail the big-list right away or if Christmas or even Easter is more of an 'ideal' time -- your call, Jeanette.

Also attached is the tune (midi) I wrote a while back for Moonhare and thought might be good enough for one of your pages; Really I just want to share it with you. In fact, if you like, I'd like to include you in on our ever-on-going chat about goings on in our lives and what we find cuddly.
