Whose giant foot is that? Where are those ears going . . . ?
Through windows, behind trees, and behind buildings, Big Bunny is peeking out. More than one hundred fifty colorful animal characters, busily walking through their city, stop and look at the giant bunny in their midst.
What could all of these clues add up to? Why, it's Big Bunny—a huge balloon, sailing down the street with a smile in the middle of a parade!
Beginning readers will love searching through Steve Henry's detailed spreads for hints, looking for Big Bunny in each spread. The text features brief, simple sentences with no more than one word changing from page to page, making this one of the first books a child will be able to read on their own.
For older readers, an author's note explains the inspiration behind the story, artistic influences, and some of the unexpected treasures hiding on the page. Bold colors and creative cutaways make this a fun read, and there's always some new detail to discover!
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Henry (Cat Got a Lot) offers a light urban mystery as readers catch glimpses of an enormous white rabbit appearing throughout a bustling town. An understated, repetitious text gives children the chance to display their reading skills, as well as their ability to piece together picture clues. "Here is a foot," writes Henry as cats, dogs, and other animals cluster around Picasso-like paintings and Calder-esque mobiles in a museum, a giant white paw visible through the building's glass windows. "Here is a tail," he continues (it's tucked behind some tall trees in a city park, where citizens stroll, sit, and read the paper). None of the animals seems alarmed by the presence of this Godzilla-size bunny construction workers and library visitors who spot the rabbit's face look downright tickled which is in itself something of a clue. Each page delivers plenty to pore over, inviting kids to make up their own stories-within-the-story, and the revelation of the bunny's identity (a parade is involved) should elicit some larger-than-life chuckles. Ages 4 8.
