The Runaway Bunny
This famous book is about a little bunny who wants to run away from his mother (which, in children’s literature lore, never goes well). Apparently Brown got the idea for this story while skiing, and wrote the whole book on the back of a receipt once she came down the mountain! Talk about multitasking.

The Dead Bird
Although this book was originally written in 1938, the bold new illustrations in this 2016 reissue make it feel totally contemporary. As one can glean from the title, this book about a dead bird, which includes a bird funeral, is pretty sad! But Brown writes about this sensitive subject matter in a way that exudes warmth and love.
