GUYS I THOUGHT OF ANOTHER BUNNY TO ADD FROM OUR CHILDHOOD BUT I CANT FIND THE BOOK ONLINE

It seems really close to dining with prunella but the art style was different and I dont think her name was prunella

She refused to eat any vegetables her mom gave her, her brothers even tried getting her to eat (shes like a 4 year old in a high chair and bib) until her mom sends her to her grandmother who gets her to help make soup and she really likes it and starts eating vegetables then on.

Tahts the jist of it anyway

I will be adding prunella but I really wanna try and find this one and add her in too.

Help??

im sorry if this doesnt count since its only the narrator but ive been trying to find this copy of jekyll and hyde i read some years back? it had a dog (spotted, jack russell or dalmation) narrating.

Sorry I'm late on answering! It sounds interesting, I'll count it especially for the sake of trying to find it!

When I was 8 I had to do a standardised test for English and one of the reading comprehensions was an exerpt from a book in which a community was on a boat fleeing some disaster and the archivist or a woman with a similar position was called into the captain's office as he told her that she had to remove certain words from the language to simplify it for future historians, starting with simple things such as the types of tea being consolidated to just "tea", and I don't know what it's called but I feel like it would be a very relevant read in modern days, in a world of anti-intellectualism in which people are demanding simpler language and refusing to engage with any reading that requires learning or effort, claiming that more advanced words should become obsolete. If anyone knows the name of the book it would be highly appreciated

Augh I'm trying to remember a book series I read years ago that's one of them like it's London but also there's secret magic people books? I can't remember what the series is called or the author and I'm loosing my mind a little bit??

Like this fella has a magic shop, and he has a friend who is a spider lady with a greek name who lives under a hidden hill on the heath? And he's left behind the magic law system so he has to be careful/chill or evil people will come??

And maybe there's exploding marbles or glass balls with spells in? Maybe I'm not sure on that bit

Or that people naturally have different types of magic to themselves? And some people can channel one type, and others channel others - I think there was a policewoman who could channel earth magic? Unless I'm getting mixed up my book series, but I don't think I am?

Thanks so much for posting my ask and thanks @honeybakedhams for finding it!!! (Thanks to everyone else who looked too!!) I really just asked so people could have a fun little scavenger hunt lol never expected it to be found, nor to want so badly to reread it!

Omg yes i saw in the notes! Its really cool that someone actually recognized the description - good job!
