Cute learn to read book, but I felt that there were some parts that jumped around.

It was good because I liked when the rabbit said “shoo” to the sharks, because I would say that

"The funniest book I've ever read!"

[Makalah Crawford]

This book was about a happy rabbit who was taking a stroll and was approached by a variety of animals. These different animals all kept inviting the rabbit to play with them, but you could tell by the pictures that was not their intention. Smaller animals who were not predators of rabbits, kept warning the rabbit to not play and guided him along the way. This book would be great for a kindergarten classroom, the kids would like the pictures and guess what might happen throughout the story.
