This book is about a bunny who gets lost, because he decides to go on his own adventure. The book does not have a lot of text, so it would be most appropriate for younger kids who are getting familiar with the English language. This book is quite fun to read, because it has a lot of examples of onomatopoeia, and alliteration, which combine to give kids the emphasis of sound and the understanding of words that start with the same letters. It would be best used in a short oral exercise, where kindergartner/1st grade students would create oral examples trying to use onomatopoeia/alliteration.

Summary: The book begins with a picture of a menacing bunny with long sharp claws scratching at the edge of the books pages, right away you are interested. Next you see a mother mouse tucking in her children and one of them is missing, Baby Boo Boo. She goes to great lengths to find her child while she is looking you are introduced to the Big Bad Bunny who is doing some not so nice things to try and appear tuff. In the end the child the mother is looking for and the Big Bad Bunny are the same person. The Bunny did not want to be called Baby Boo Boo anymore so he went to great lengths to change his image when all he needed to do was tell his mother and she understood.

Personal reaction: I thought this book was wonderful. The pictures were great and had so much detail in them. It was hard to picture a bunny with long sharp teeth and claws and the pictures sure made that image clear. The book has an underlined message of communication.

Classroom extension ideas: communication, image. ( )

A little mouse saddled with the too-cutesy name "Baby Boo Boo" decides she is ferocious BIG BAD BUNNY and goes traipsing off into the woods, forcing her mama to follow her.

This is a great book to read aloud with all the Grr! Stomp! Roars! It also has really adorable illustrations. ( )

A momma goes searching for her baby bunny. She follows the cries to locate her baby. It is similar to bunny foo-foo but is a very cute tale. Great for younger kids and for their mothers to read out loud to them! ( )
