''The Country Bunny and the Little Gold Shoes'' is a 1939 children's picture book written by DuBose Heyward and illustrated by Marjorie Flack.

According to James Hutchisson, professor of English at The Citadel, the book is probably based on a story made up by Heyward's mother, Jane Screven DuBose, and told to Heyward when he was a child. Before turning it into a book, Heyward used to tell the story to his own children. Plot The book is the story of Cottontail, a small, brown mother bunny who aspires to be an Easter bunny, which, in this telling, is a highly competitive position for which only five bunnies are selected each year. She applies, only to be scorned by the elite Easter bunnies, "big white bunnies who lived in fine houses" who tell her to "go back to the country and eat a carrot." She returns to the country where "by and by she had a husband and then one d ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Marc Tolon Brown (born November 25, 1946) is an American author and illustrator of children's books. Brown writes as well as illustrates the ''Arthur'' book series and is best known for creating that series and its numerous spin-offs.

While attending McDowell Senior High School, his art teacher, Nancy Bryan, introduced him to watercolors, which he now uses for the majority of his illustrations. Brown was inspired by other artists like Marc Chagall. Maurice Sendak, the author of the children's book ''Where the Wild Things Are'', al ...
