How many bunnies are too many in one burrow? Teetu decides there are so many bunnies everywhere he turns, he won’t be missed if he leaves. He finds out ‘B’ is not only for’ bunnies’, it is also for ‘brave’ and ‘bold’ and ‘book’. It’s a satisfying story many children will enjoy and relate to, but the most interesting part of this book are the illustrations.

At first glance there seems a disconnect between the cartoonish, simple white rabbit walking through a dark, dusky forest, meeting various animals. But upon closer inspection, the reader will discover animals in the trees as well! The trees have lacey leaves and branches, and cleverly woven into the patterns of the leaves are outlines of various animals!

For all ages to enjoy!
