About this listen

Meet a very special rabbit with an unusual talent in this brilliant rhyming story, perfect for listening to at home, in the car, at bedtime – or any time at all!

The Rhyming Rabbit loves to make up entertaining poems, inspired by everything he sees, but the other rabbits don’t appreciate his talent for rhyme. Sad and lonely, the Rhyming Rabbit sets off one starry night all on his own – will he ever find someone to share his poems with?

The Rhyming Rabbit is a clever rhyming adventure from the stellar picture book partnership of Julia Donaldson and Lydia Monks, creators of What the Ladybird Heard. This delightful story is brought to life by much-loved actor David Tennant, in this brilliant audio edition.

Enjoy more stories by Julia Donaldson and Lydia Monks: What the Ladybird Heard, The Singing Mermaid, Sugarlump and the Unicorn and The Girl, the Bear and the Magic Shoes.

Critic reviews

Glittery and witty
A delightful dottiness which is just as captivating [as The Gruffalo].
Most children love rhyming, and even those who don’t will enjoy The Rhyming Rabbit… a strong narrative with universal themes.
Donaldson’s unrivaled way with words is showcased to perfection as our lyrical rabbit spurts out poem after poem.

My four year-old loved it before going to sleep. 🙂 We all enjoyed it a lot.

Perfect bedtime story

the volume of the singing part is louder than the story, not good for bedtime and the worst not is the really annoying woman at the end and in between sections who reads out loudly all the copyright info and wakes up your child and you when you've just fallen asleep!! Why?! it's such a failure of the point!

Aside from that the story is really nice and the singing good.

Great story and read well except...
