Descrição da editora
From the author of the bestselling Ladybug Girl series, this hilarious, empowering picture book about a little black-belt who faces a new challenge is perfect for fans of The Three Ninja Pigs, The Pigeon Finds a Hot Dog, and I Will Never Not Ever Eat a Tomato
Black Belt Bunny is fast and strong and has seriously awesome moves—from front-kicks to back-flips to air-chops. Then he’s faced with something new, something every bunny must learn, something he might not be as good at: He has to make . . . a salad. Black Belt Bunny tries to escape. He even disguises himself with a fake mustache. But when he finally hops to it, he discovers that his seriously awesome moves come in pretty handy, and that—in a funny twist that puts the narrator in the hot seat—he isn’t the only one who has to try new things.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
An off-page narrator introduces Black Belt Bunny, a small, energetic rabbit seen wearing a white gi. After telling readers about the skills the rabbit has mastered ("downward blocks, center punches, and knee drops"), the narrator drops a shocker: "Now it is time for you, little Black Belt, to learn how to... make a salad." Black Belt Bunny's ears droop, he hides, and he attempts to flag a taxi before turning his martial arts abilities on the veggies ("Side-kick those carrots. Slice that lettuce!"). Giving the unseen narrator all the speaking lines while Bunny responds through gesture and expression lets Fleck (Double Take! A New Look at Opposites) demonstrate his own chops with an array of scowls, pouts, and conspiratorial grins (and kicks and punches, of course). Black Belt Bunny is a great stand-in for any super-wiggly elementary schooler as Davis (the Ladybug Girl series) combines martial arts action, sly humor, and the conviction that even the very small can learn how to channel their energy into real-world tasks. Ages 3 5.
