Publisher Description
Join Bunny as he takes a a top-secret trip to the library in a story that celebrates the love of reading.
Bunny loves to sit outside the library with the kids and listen to summer story time. But when the weather gets cold and everyone moves inside, his daily dose of joy is gone. Desperate, Bunny refuses to miss out on any more reading time and devises a plan to sneak into the library at night . . . through the library’s book drop!
What follows is an adorable caper that brings an inquisitive, fuzzy bunny and his woodland pals up close and personal with the world of books. Bunny’s Book Club is sure to bring knowing smiles to anyone who understands the one-of-a-kind magic of reading.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Bunny, a rabbit, has been eavesdropping on the local library's outdoor story time and fallen in love with how books can spark an array of adventures: "As he listened, Bunny imagined himself climbing mountains... captaining a ship... ruling a kingdom." But now that it's sweater weather, and story time has moved indoors, what will Bunny do? The answer isn't exactly legal (book return slots are intended for books, after all) and it gets a little out of hand (pretty soon Bunny's friends all want in on his after-hours library excursions). But the librarian turns out to be forgiving where these trans-species bibliophiles are concerned, and since "All libraries have rules," Bunny and his accomplices end up with their own library cards. Debut author Silvestro can sometimes be too literal and earnest ("He followed his nose to the adventure section"), but she makes the pleasures of reading abundantly clear. Mai-Wyss (The Passover Lamb) smartly divides the storytelling into small, telling moments, amplifying each vignette with a fine eye for detail and warmhearted humor. Ages 3 7.
