Harris was a very small hare with very big feet.

“Why do I have such enormous feet, Grandad?”

Harris sighed.

So Grandad shows Harris how to hop high into the sky, to climb to the tops of the mountains, and to run very fast. Harris not only learns about the world around him but also the importance of finding his own feet…

A beautiful and remarkable story of a child’s journey to independence.

"Winner of the 2009 Kate Greenaway Medal, this sparkling story of a hare's journey to independence is available in board book for the first time."

"An enchanting, nature-inspired read about self-belief and the bold courage needed to take your first steps on a big adventure."

"The magic of Rayner's fresh, honeyed and painterly illustrations, and the poignancy of the loving bond between a little hare and his grandfather, spring to glorious life again as a new generation of youngsters learn to fall in love with Harris."

"Every spread of this book is pure pleasure, as the little hare bounds gleefully across Kate Greenaway medal winning Catherine Rayner's wonderful watercolour-washed spreads, pausing sometimes for discussions on his journey towards independence. A must have addition to your board book collection."
