baby bunnies, were not really a part of the plot until more then halfway through. It was a nice change to have some family drama in the series, to have a kid struggling to adjust to new situations at home instead of everything always being about the animals, but it was a bit of a letdown that there wasn't the usual urgency of "will the animal live" or whatever. I liked the ending, how John finally had a way to keep the baby rabbits but at the same time take care of the problem of what to do with them while he is a way at school, and for once the bratty little Imogen was actually fairly nice.
