      Andy Riley, autor de los éxitos El libro de los conejitos suicidas y El regreso de los conejitos suicidas, ambos publicados por Astiberri, vuelve con una dosis doble de autodestrucción conejil (60 páginas más que cada una de las dos entregas anteriores). Los simpáticos animalitos sólo tienen una idea en su cabeza: poner fin a su vida con un derroche de imaginación y carcajadas. El amanecer de los conejitos suicidas nos muestra nuevas maneras, a cual más estrafalaria, que los conejitos eligen para abandonar este mundo. El perverso sentido del humor de Andy Riley provocará la hilaridad del lector, que no dejará de admirar la imaginación de un artista que no tiene prejuicios para mostrar el lado oscuro de unos animalitos a los que (casi) todo el mundo ve con simpatía. Son más de 40.000 ejemplares vendidos por la saga de Los conejitos suicidas en castellano, que tiene su continuación en la edición en catalán de El llibre dels conillets suïcides.
