Freckles the Bunny Series, Book # 3: Freckles Lends a Paw is written by Vickianne Caswell. This book is created as part of a series for children. The story offers a mix of emotions from its characters: happy, sad, scared, excited, and hopeful. Freckles the bunny lives by a neighbor, thought to be a mean old bunny who doesn't like children. Some of the neighborhood children and friends of Freckles even call her neighbor a wizard that will eat children. Mr. Loppity, Freckles's neighbor doesn't like children because the neighborhood children didn't respect his property and did bad things to it. Freckles didn't notice Mr. Loppity outside and told her mother. When she came home from school and found out what happened to her mother and Mr. Loppity, her feelings towards him changed forever. Freckles also discovers a new feeling she had never felt before; one that made her feel warm and fuzzy inside after she and her friends do something for Mr. Loppity.
Vickianne Caswell has created a children's book series that is educational and family oriented. The book offers amazing, colorful pictures to go along with a fun life lesson intertwined into the story line. Freckles the Bunny teaches children the importance of not judging someone without getting to know them first, and that doing good deeds and helping a person out of kindness can make you feel good inside. This book is a wonderful story to be shared with adults and children alike.

The story teaches children about how to have compassion for others. A great story to teach children about not being judgmental of others. This story also teaches "community."
