Bunny & Tree by Balint Zsako / ISBN 9781592703937 / 184-page hardcover, 8 x 10.25 inches, published in 2023 by Enchanted Lion Books / finding it impossible to get mint copies of this book because it is kind of heavy and the jacket is printed on uncoated stock, so all my copies are brand new but have minor imperfections
This bookseller's humble opinion: Wow.

A gorgeous wordless adventure story about a rabbit and a tree, their surprising friendship, and the distance they go to find a place to call home.
Bunny and Tree first meet when the tree observes a ferocious wolf threatening the bunny and comes to its protection. From that moment on, there is a bond of trust between the two, which flowers not only into friendship, but amazingly, into a road trip adventure, when Bunny, who's looking for his rabbit friends, convinces Tree that it's time to uproot and see the world. Compelled by sympathy and a shared purpose, Bunny and Tree hit the road, becoming another tremendous and memorable picture book odd couple. Depicted in bright colors in a world of lavish skies and so much to see, Bunny and Tree share in wonder, adventure, misadventure, solidarity, and a sense of homecoming.
