Det var det perfekta sättet att överge huskaninen Floppy i skogen och ta ett stort kliv mot vuxenlivet. Att ha en kanin som fungerar som bästa vän är väl för barn, eller hur? Det är bättre att släppa ett husdjur fritt, skaffa nya mänskliga vänner, och inte vara så beroende av en lurvig boll med långa öron som bara vill tugga på elkablar, eller hur? Om det krävs att säga adjö till Floppy för att växa upp, varför känns livet utan Floppy så fel? Från Benjamin Chaud, den kritikerrosade författaren/illustratören till Björnens sång och Björnens havsäventyr, kommer denna oförglömliga, tankeväckande bilderbok om kraften i osannolika vänskaper.
