Editorial Reviews

02/09/2015
Anderson follows Puppies and Kittens with an ode to the activities and movements of five multicolored rabbits: a pink one wears a bow, a brown one has glasses, and a gray one clings tightly to its carrot like a teddy bear. Her bright, humorous cartoons are the main draw, as the “bunnies hide in hidey-holes,” splash in puddles, and “go thump, thump, thump” with their large feet before settling down for the night. An eye-catching diversion for animal lovers. Simultaneously available: Chicks. Up to age 3. (Mar.)

A cluster of bunnies plays the day away.Dynamic double-page spreads detail a band of multicolored bunnies going about their day. Little readers will witness the critters nibbling carrots, jumping in puddles, stargazing, and other activities but not much else. There's no textual narrative, just a list of things the rabbits do throughout the day. Some of the vocabulary provides a stretch: "huddles," "romp," "twitch," and "snooze." The illustrations are the book's highlight, eschewing the supersimple flatness often found in board books and embracing a squiggly line approach that's quite refreshing. Notably, one of the bunnies wears glasses, though Anderson unfortunately yields to convention by indicating gender with a pink, bow-wearing bunny. A similar board book featuring a group of chicks, appropriately titled Chicks, is also available. Cheery and colorful, though not extraordinary. (Board book. 1-3)
