Covering the Newbery (#24): Rabbit Hill

It be Monday, the day I set aside for Newbery recoverifying (sorry, English language, for that last word). On to this week’s book…

1945: Rabbit Hill by Robert Lawson

Original Cover:

Rabbit Hill Covering the Newbery (#24): Rabbit Hill

My Redo:

Cover Rabbit Hill Covering the Newbery (#24): Rabbit Hill

Side by Side:

Rabbit Hill 204x300 Covering the Newbery (#24): Rabbit HillCover Rabbit Hill 203x300 Covering the Newbery (#24): Rabbit Hill

Verdict: My cover goes in a different direction, which could be good.

    I LOVE the new cover choice – especially over that weirdly creepy rabbit.
