On Thursday, Jan. 2, the David M. Hunt Library in Falls Village, Conn., hosted a joy-filled “Bunny Story Hour with Piper and Otis the Rabbit.” Otis is the 8-year-old beloved pet rabbit of Piper and Walter Peterson, who live in Falls Village. “I guess she’s about 50 in bunny years,” said Piper.

Brittany Spear-Baron, the library’s assistant director and youth programming coordinator, curates the twice-a-week (Tuesdays and Thursdays at 10:30 a.m.) themed story-time for children. “We usually get kids aged 1 to 4 years old, but it’s a wider range right now because of the holiday.”

Once the children were seated, Piper explained how to care for Otis— from feeding, to cleaning, to his sleeping needs. “Otis is nocturnal,” Piper explained. Piper then read several books to the group that she had selected about rabbits.

Spear-Baron said, “It’s a fun way for kids to meet each other and have some community time.”
