Garth Williams was not only an illustrator but an author too. I just read that this book was banned when published in 1950s; which surprised me until I finally figured out why😜…..
My grands liked it—they found it at a LFL (little free library )

LibrarianRyan the white rabbit says I do too. They get married, surrounded by friends and live happily ever after. Want to take a guess on why this book was hated in 1958? If you guessed racism, you are correct! At the time this book was written interracial marriage was rare, extremely frowned upon, and illegal in many states. This book saying that it‘s okay for two to marry, and it even brings about a happy ending. This book is not currently in print and you h 14mo

Jinjer Whaaaat? Why??? Who is against fuzzy bunnies??? 7y
rubyslippersreads @Jinjer When the book came out in the 1950s, some people were actually upset that the bunnies were black and white. The author said his story was not written for adults, who "will not understand it, because it is only about a soft furry love and has no hidden message of hate." ❤ 7y
Jinjer Smart author. Adults can be so stupid.🙄 7y
