While We Were Out gave me a chuckle, yes, but it was the book's cover that coaxed me into the story. Here's an inquisitive bunny with an antidote to isolation. She's been quietly watching her human family, and when they leave her alone, she has fun. As Ho Baek Lee gives us a tour this family's apartment, we pause to wonder if this endearing rabbit has had such fun many times before! While her humans visit grandma, this rabbit enjoys herself by having a snack, watching a movie, playing dress-up, and more. We learn that she has wanted to try the inline roller skates for a long time. Of course, they are much too big. She doesn't cry; she doesn't put the skates away. She finds an ingenious way to play! She is a creative problem-solver! This sweet story is without conflict and ends with a surprise.
