Sometimes who we are isn’t who we wish to be. A bunny wants to be included in the dog book. There is only one problem: bunny is not a dog! Identity, friendship, and belonging are at the heart of this delightful story. Through wonderfully sparse illustrations, bunny shows readers anything the dogs can do bunny can do too – like dog paddle, wag a tail, enjoy treats, and even sniff doo doo. Ultimately, the dogs decide bunny can be a part of the book because bunny meets the most important criteria: being a good friend. This would make for a lively (and silly!) read aloud with K-2 students.
