Eric Rohmann, the 2003 Caldecott Winner, will give a
presentation about his book My Friend Rabbit on
Wednesday, April 30, at 7:30 p.m. at the Thomas J. Dodd
Research Center in Storrs. The book is a lighthearted
celebration of the friendship between Mouse and Rabbit.
Through hand-colored relief prints, the characters tumble
and spill from the page.
A resident of the Chicago area, Rohmann is painter, a
printmaker and a fine bookmaker. He also was awarded a
Caldecott Honor in 1995 for his debut book, Time
Flies.
Rohmann's talk is hosted by the UConn Co-op and is
free and open to the public.
