    THE RABBITS John Marsden and Shaun Tan John Marsden’s award winning picture book‚ is a partly figurative story about colonisation‚ told from the viewpoint of the colonised. Marsden deeply explores the concept of belonging through powerful illustrations and key phrases.

    well-known author. He is known for his series of novels about Rabbit. Updike published one book of this series every decade from 1960 to 1990. My favorites of the series are Rabbit Run and Rabbit redux. A close examination of Rabbit Run and Rabbit Redux will show how Updike uses very similar concepts in each novel.
