Description: Budgee Budgee Cottontail is a very special book because it was written and illustrated by Jo Mora in 1936, but never published. It was just shelved when WWII came along, so Jo never had it published. But his children vowed to see their childhood cartoon hero published in its original form. Jo Mora Jr. had it in his closet and I saw it when I was on my first visit. I asked him if I could take it home and have my kids read it. I did and they loved it. It is a wonderful art book. We reproduced it as truly as possible to Jo's original manuscript. Budgee is a beautiful story told in verse. Budgee runs away from home and has a tremendous adventure. My kids have Budgee pictures all over their rooms. They raise rabbits and have one named Budgee. I think that all children will love this book, but more importantly, it is a collectors' book, as well as a children's classic.
