It all started with the school rabbit…
Snowflake is the school rabbit, and Snowflake is TROUBLE.
At least that’s what Tommy thinks. And when Snowflake unexpectedly comes to stay just before Christmas and EVERYTHING starts to go wrong, it looks like Tommy might be right.
With a sick sister left in bed, a snobby actor left with suspiciously damp trousers, and no rabbit anywhere to be seen, Tommy and his family may just be DOOMED.
Is Tommy suffering the curse of the school rabbit? Or can all this bad luck turn good in the end?
A fantastically funny and exquisitely illustrated young fiction title from much-loved author and illustrator Judith Kerr.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I loved it so so so so so so Much
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5I came across The Curse of the School Rabbit last night in my library's BorrowBox catalogue and couldn't resist the cover. This was my first Judith Kerr and if the rest of her books are like this one, I can see why she was such a beloved author. The story of Snowflake, who has a tendency to pee on people, was both funny and heartwarming and dealt with a young boy worrying about a struggling family, illness, and the responsibility of looking after an animal in a very touching and sympathetic way. I really enjoyed this.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Young Tommy is convinced that the school rabbit kept by Miss Bennett is cursed, as it seems to bring misfortune to him and to his family in this amusing early chapter-book from celebrated British children's author and artist, Judith Kerr. Snowflake had a penchant for peeing on people's legs, something Tommy had already discovered for himself, and something which caused quite a bit of trouble for Tommy's father, when an important film star came to their home to discuss a possible project while Snowflake was staying there. With this potential job off the table, it seemed as if Tommy's dream of getting a bicycle for Christmas would never come true. Fortunately, things took an unexpected turn...As a long-time fan of Judith Kerr, someone who has read and adored most of her many books about Mog, that rotund and forgetful kitty, as well as her autobiographical novels based upon her childhood as a refugee from Nazi Germany (When Hitler Stole Pink Rabbit and sequels), I was saddened by her death this past year (2019). It was therefore a happy surprise to see The Curse of the School Rabbit (a posthumous publication) come into work, and I immediately picked it up. I found the story amusing, and the character of Tommy sympathetic. The accompanying illustrations were charming, as one would expect, and captured the sense of humor throughout. Recommended to fellow Kerr fans, and to anyone looking for humorous but ultimately heartwarming tale for their beginning chapter-book readers.
