Features & Highlights

  • Eleven-year-old Drew Montgomery has not, does not, and will not ever want a stupid old rabbit. All they do is sit in their cages, eat carrots, and poop. Then his annoying little sister blackmails him into hiding a bunny in his closet. She knows what really happened to his "stolen" bike and she's threatening to tell. Now Drew’s in a real jam. If his "No pets!" parents find the rabbit or, worse, his sister blabs the truth, he'll be grounded till Grade Seven for sure. And if that’s not enough trouble, two girls at school drag him into a prank war that goes from bad to worse--and it's all the rabbit’s fault. Plus, the weirdest girl in his class wants to be his science partner. If she tells him she wants to be his girlfriend, he just knows he’s gonna die. Drew must find a way to outwit the mean girls, wiggle out of the blackmail deal, and get rid of the rabbit before it destroys his bedroom and his life.

Hop...hop...hop to wherever you purchase books and get this book for the kid in your life!!!

I won this terrific book in a goodreads giveaway...thank you!
I read this as a preview to see if it was appropriate for my 7 year old grandson and while I think he will better understand it in a year or two, I thoroughly enjoyed it and I look forward to re-reading it with him. It's an adorable book with lots of humor that is sure to please any child and any adult who reads along with their child. I highly recommend this wonderful book. Thank you Ms. Cole!!!

A Rabbit and Little Sister. Poor Drew!

Some books are just so much fun that you just know they will make a fantastic series. The Rabbit ate my homework is absolutely one of these books. Drew Montgomery is an 11-year-old boy who learns pretty quickly that honesty is the best policy. Of course, knowing and doing are two different things and all it takes is his little sister’s blackmail to get him in over his head with a pet rabbit with an appetite for destruction and mayhem.

As a once upon a time kid, I have to agree with Drew’s assessment. All rabbits do is sit in their cages, eat carrots, and poop. Of course, if I had had a rabbit like Tiny, maybe I would feel differently. As a mom, I cringed knowing that the first thing that the rabbit was going to do once in one of the kids’ beds was pee. I was super pleased to see a realistic portrayal of kids handling the stresses of pet ownership while trying to keep it a secret. I know my own kid would give it up about 30 seconds in.

Drew and his little sister Libby have a serious Charlie Brown/Sally vibe and their relationship, while typical of their age group was also sweet to read. One gets the idea that Drew probably would have given in to her demands even without the blackmail hanging over his head. Drew is obviously not a bad kid, he just doesn’t think things through and one lie gets out of control pretty fast.
