Burrow Whispers

Step softly inside the Reading Rabbit’s Burrow — a digital home and imaginary library tucked just beneath the roots of an old tree. Here, stories are always warm, shelves are always full, and time slows to the gentle rhythm of turning pages.
🧒📘 The Little Engine That Could — Notes for Home
As the little engine climbs the mountain, encourage your child to say, “I think I can, I think I can.” When it rolls down the other side, repeat, “I thought I could! I thought I could!” Make the story active and fun together. 🐾 #NotesForHome

Read It Slowly

“Read that part again,” a rabbit near the shelves asks softly.

The reader nods and begins once more, slower this time.

Even the lantern seems to lean in. 🐾 #BurrowWhispers #StoryScenes #QuietReading #GentleStories #ReadingRabbits

🐇📖 Burrow Whispers began as The Book Keeper, but it grew into something quieter — a place instead of a title. A burrow beneath the noise, where stories are shared softly and time is allowed to slow down.

Holding a Word

“This word feels heavy,” a small rabbit says, tapping the page.

“Some words are meant to be held,” another replies.

They sit still for a moment, letting the sentence rest between them. 🐾 #StoryScenes #QuietReading #GentleStories #ReadingRabbits
