One winter's day, Chloe Dalton went for a countryside walk and discovered a newborn baby hare - no bigger than her hand - chased by a dog and separated from its mother. Worried for its safety, Chloe took the tiny hare home and learned how to feed and care for it . . . and an extraordinary friendship began.

This is the true tale of how Chloe and the hare, with its drumming paws and distinctive charm, lived alongside each other until the time came for it to return to the wild.

But when the hare is finally ready to jump over the garden wall, will Chloe ever see it again?Featuring a postscript by Michael Morpurgo and beautiful illustrations throughout by Denise Nestor.
