I think Barrington Bunny is a great way to explain the story of the bible in a different manner than the traditional teaching. It uses great examples of imagery throughout the story and it is easy to follow the bunny on it's journey through the woods as he visits each of his friends. However, the main literary tool used in this story is obviously symbolism. Almost every character and action can be linked to a part of the Bible or a lesson that it tries to teach.
