The Legendary Rabbit of Death - Volume One

We are very happy to be able to announce the publication of our first book for children The Legendary Rabbit of Death - Volume One.


The Rabbit of Death lives in the ‘Cave of Everlasting Terror’. He rides out each day on his huge motorcycle to bring humorous chaos to the lives of rabbits in need of change. They greet him with trepidation, as he can be gruff and strange - but he is a kindly figure, even though he has a strange and startling way of helping. The rabbits he helps, join him in his mysterious world becoming the Rabbits of: Peace, Special Powers, Rainbows and Flyingness. But there are villains in the small Welsh rabbit town - the horrible chain-smoking rats Morgoth and Sowgoth Gizzardswill. The Rabbit of Death has to deal with them. These stories overflow with humour, word-play, and weird surprises. They carry a heart-warming message: everyone has skills and qualities that can be developed. Anyone can learn to become kind, creative, happy, and exciting.


Harry Potter meets Monty Python when nine-year-old Ræchel Togden’s dad agrees to be her typist and Photoshop facilitator. Ræchel Togden’s imagination runs wild when her dad—being an author and artist—enables her to develop stories and illustrations beyond the limits of her age – yet her creations remain entirely hers.

Forthcoming 2013: The Legendary Rabbit of Death

The Rabbit of Death lives in the magnificent Cave of Everlasting Terror. He rides each day on his huge motorcycle to bring a little chaos to the lives of rabbits in need of change. They meet him with trepidation, as he can be gruff and strange – but he is a kindly figure even though he has a strange and startling way of helping. The rabbits he helps join him in his mysterious world – becoming Rabbits of: Special Powers, Poetry, Destiny, Laughter, Rainbows, and Flyingness. They work together with the Fox Family from Finland to rid Penarth of the foul and horrible chain-smoking rats Morgoth and Sowgoth Gizzardswill – and their vile vindictive nephews.

These stories overflow with humour, word-play, and weird surprises. They carry a heart-warming message: Everyone has skills and qualities that can be developed. Everyone can learn to be kind, creative, and exciting.

Dear Sir or Madman - The Rabbit of Typographical Errors

Some years ago I wrote a letter to a psychiatrist.  Years later I looked at a copy of the letter and couldn't believe what I'd written. The letter began:

'Dear Sir or Madman,'

Yes, I'd written 'Madman' ... in a letter to a psychiatrist.  I never did receive a reply.

More recently I let another typing error go unnoticed, I'd misspelt 'risible' on the Rabbit mugs - all of them.

Unfortunately they've been selling rather well, so I've been gainfully employed not only in correcting the error, but also in contacting the customers to arrange replacement.  It's been a time-consuming lesson in proofreading and the results of not checking things thoroughly.

As you can see from the Rabbit of Death, the mugs are now all correct and once more ready for sale.  Take a look at them at http://www.zazzle.com/arobooksworldwide/gifts?dp=252585008705651924 or http://www.zazzle.co.uk/arobooksworldwide/gifts?dp=252585008705651924 . Do let me know if you spot any mistakes!
