Favorite friends and series contribute to a bouquet of spring books. A follow-up to What's the Matter, Davy?, Davy in the Middle by Brigitte Weninger, illus. by Eve Tharlet, finds the beleaguered bunny feeling lost and lonesome: ""I'm never allowed to do what I want. I'm too small or too big to do anything fun, but whenever anyone needs me to do something for them, I'm just right."" Davy's whole family comes together to show him how much they do care.
