Little Bunny's Sleepless Night - Hardcover

Rezensionen

PreSchool-K-"Little Bunny had no brothers or sisters. He had his very own room with his very own bed." One night, he is so lonely that he can't sleep, and he goes in search of company. First he stays with Squirrel, who crunches acorns loudly in the middle of the night. Then, he goes to Skunk, who forgets he has company and sprays; and finally, after a few more stopovers, he shows up at the door of Owl, who keeps the light burning way too late. Owl tells Little Bunny, "I stay up reading every night. That's how I got to be so wise" and gives the sleepy fellow some good advice for a predictable yet satisfying ending. The story and artwork are loaded with child appeal. The plot has a good rhythm to it, with a gentle echo of the loneliness some children may feel all alone in a big bed. The pictures are done in soft colors and scratchy yet supple lines to create a nighttime world of endearing animals. This book isn't likely to win any major awards but it will get repeated bedtime readings in lots of households.
