I have two grandchildren…a 6 1/2 year old grand daughter and a 5 month old little grandson. Every month we get together at least two times and hold play dates, reading dates or movie time together. These are family bonding times that I cherish with my grandchildren.
One of the types of things I love to review here on the blog are children’s books…all kinds of books! I love sitting down and looking through baby books, picture books and of course…reading books with the kids.
Recently I received a brand new children’s book to check out for all of you.
Title: The Bunny Burrow Buyer’s Book ~ A Tale of Rabbit Real Estate
Author: Steve Light
ISBN: 978-1-57687-752-4
Ages: 4-8 years
Release Date: April 2016
Mr. and Mrs. Rabbit are having baby bunnies, and their burrow-for-two is just too small to accommodate a growing family. Time to call the forest real estate agent! Like most humans, the Rabbits look at a lot of different places, each one appealing in its own way, but none of them quite is right! Will they find the perfect new home to call their own?
The delightful and engaging Bunny Burrow Buyer’s Book: A Tale of Rabbit Real Estate by renowned illustrator and writer Steve Light, author of bestsellers like Have You Seen My Dragon? by Candlewick Press and Trains Go by Chronicle Books, is a saga of a swiftly increasing family of rabbits in search of a new place to call their own, rendered in exquisitely detailed artwork featuring cut-outs and gatefolds, is a perfect book for small children whose families are moving to a new home….
A single, black brushstroke that runs through the entire book provides a line that can be traced by little fingers from page to page, and anchoring the detailed pen-and-ink style that Steve uses to show the forest homes and the creatures who currently inhabit them–the visible above-ground part of each burrow appears above the line, and the underground portion shows below the line. In addition, circular die cuts in each page allow a peek into the next burrow.
As a grandmother, I really love the simplicity of this book! While my 6 1/2 year old grand daughter enjoys the book, I really think it’s geared towards smaller children. I love all of the gatefold pages which give children an easy way to interact with the book and the story line. The illustrations are charming to look at and the simple story is a very easy read for a younger child. I think it’s an adorable children’s hardcover book!

I learned that they have partnered with a couple companies including Nike to write a story about their famous shoe line.
This book looks utterly charming though truth be told it would be better if someone else won it because around here there is no little person little enough to enjoy it. I really love the illustrations too.
