This was one of my first books. Mom used to read us this and we would giggle; somehow we were always surprised at the end, as if we'd never heard it before. That's the nature of childhood for a child who loves books ~ kind of like playing peek-a-boo, it never gets old. I was fascinated by the illustrations, too ~ though they're only flat, two-color, broad-brush designs. Just guessing at the date I first read it, but read it many times again, and even dug up a used copy recently.
This is the first book that I ever read! My mother used to read it to me when I was a little girl. I actually remember the moment when I made the connection between the words that my mother was saying and the words in print.
Ok....it would get five stars if I gave it it's full sentimental value. It is one of the first books I remember reading on my own, and the thrill of being able to do so was electrifying.
Nostalgia review: One of my favorite books when I was little, and also one of the first books I ever read on my own. A wonderful and fun story for very young kids.
Love this book!!! It was my favorite when I was a child!!! I could relate to these little bunnies because I often had to play quietly while my father slept since he worked nights.
One of my favorites from childhood. This book was definitely not first published in 1981 - mine has a copyright of 1963, and it was given to me by my father on my sixth birthday in 1967.
