Meet Newbie, a Rescue Bunny Trainee.
She has passed her physical fitness test. She has passed her emergency roping test. Now it′s time for the toughest test of all: the Field test. There is a giraffe in a mud hole who is sinking fast. A pack of hyenas is fast approaching. Will Newbie have what it takes to save the day?
Told in her signature deadpan (and hilarious) style, RESCUE BUNNIES is an exciting new picture book from #1 New York Times bestselling author Doreen Cronin that is sure to appeal to fans of CLICK, CLACK, MOO and her DIARY OF... series.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Newbie, the aptly named trainee of the tough-minded Rescue Bunnies, is eager to prove she has what it takes to become a full-fledged member. She gets her chance when a giraffe gets stuck in the mud in the middle of hyena country. There s just one more thing Newbie needs to know: if the hyenas get too close, the bunnies call a Code Red. Evacuation, explains a crew member. We leave, giraffe stays. Will Newbie save the day or just her own skin? Menchin s crisp digital images initially feel too juvenile given the premise (the rabbits seem more mouselike than rabbity), and Cronin (who collaborated with Menchin on Wiggle, Bounce, and Stretch) relies on a surprising number of tired gags and movie quotes (everything from You can t handle the truth! to Here s looking at you, kid ) to give the Rescue Bunnies a whiff of hard-boiled irreverence. But once the Rescue Bunnies get on the scene, and Newbie bonds with the stranded giraffe, the comic melodrama kicks into high gear. Ages 4 8.
