Simon : The Secret

Simon is an adorable little rabbit who exudes all the vitality of childhood.
He's at an age when little rabbits (and indeed little children!) are starting to come into their own - challenging relationships with parents, embarking upon school life, learning about the world in general, dealing with authority and of course, language.
Kids can use Simon as an example when standing their ground, they can learn from him, his mishaps and the way he has to get down off his high horse, but always with humor and good grace.
