Ray and his bunny assistant are inseparable. One day, while they are performing their magic act together, a pug gets loose in the crowd and chases bunny into an unknown part of the city. He is hopelessly lost, and Ray is nowhere in sight. After following some familiar gold stars, bunny finds Ray, and readers are treated to a touching reunion. A tender, visually splendid tale to inspire a love of storytelling. (Candlewick, $6.99)
