WHEN RABBITS ARE SCARED

Norwegian title: Når kaniner blir redde

Arne Svingen

A stark and beautiful picture book about being a child in a world at war. What's it like to be little when even your own mother cannot guarantee everything will be alright?

Mom says Noah can run faster than bullets, and that's a good thing, because sometimes bullets hit their apartment block. It's going to be ok, says Mom. Mom looks after Noah and Noah looks after Wild Rabbit. But one day their apartment block is hit by a bomb, and both Mom and Wild Rabbit are gone.

Arne Svingen has written a number of books for children, teens and adults. The book is illustrated by Danish illustrator and artist, Kamila Slocinska. She is a graduate of The Danish Design School and Glasgow School of Art.
