Rabbits Books

We have three rabits and I gain a lot of knowledge regarding rabbits with this book. It is easy to read and has many information.

A lot of good information and some good photos. I have yet to find one definitive house rabbit guide, but this covers a lot of the basics: history, deciding if rabbit is right pet, adopting a rabbit, setting up living space and health. There is also a great section on rabbit behavior and behavior problems.

Worth buying before or after bringing a rabbit into your home!

Parents and kids alike will enjoy these very funny stories for beginning readers. My kindergartener and I laughed so hard, especially during the sheep story. Highly recommended.

If you love James Marshall's "George and Martha" stories but your child is outgrowing them, you can find similar humor in chapter book style in "Rats on the Roof." The stories are all about animals and their goofy dilemmas. There is a sheep who gets into big trouble by pretending to read when he can't (he thinks a "DANGER - Beware of Wolves" sign reads "welcome to the pretty green park"). And there is an owl who has to defend her tree from a hungry brontosaurus (who said only meat eating dinosaurs are dangerous?)... Marshall's funny illustrations add to the pleasure of the tales. "Rats on the Roof" is clean, lighthearted reading.

My daughter (now 5) and I have enjoyed this book over the last year and it has helped her understanding of reuse and why we need to do it. It as also improved our recycling (we now have a box of scrap paper for her to use and I'm using more plastic containers and less plastic wrap). The game seems silly but she seems to enjoy it and learn from it. I doubt we'll play it more than a few times more (less than 10 times total).

Recycle Everyday! tells a story about a recycling poster contest while suggesting numerous ways for people to reduce, reuse, and recycle. Very child-friendly message. Illustrated using recycled materials. Includes a game and an activity. Karen Woodworth-Roman, Children's Science Book Review

What a great book to explain the Easter story to your kids. Simple, easy to read and sweet. Your kids will fall in love with Nathanael.

Parents of Christian families don't often know how to let their children enjoy holidays like Christmas and Easter without perpetuating the myths of Santa Claus and the Easter Bunny. With The Resurrection Rabbit, the author uses the adorable bunny, Nathanael, to show what really happened on "resurrection" Sunday, Easter.

The book features colorful and thoughtful illustrations and the story is told in a fashion that allows for families to read it together. In addition, it is notable that the illustrations of people were multi-ethnic; making any child feel at home. All too often, the Christ-child and the man, Jesus, are portrayed as lilly white Swedes. I appreciated the author and illustrator's sensitivity to this as many minority families cannot find books that their kids can relate to.

I look forward to future titles from the author. The rear cover indicates that future books, describing topics that face todays families, will be available in a "Life Lessons" series.

The Resurrection Rabbit would not only be great for your family, but also a great basket stuffer for grandparents, aunts, uncles and others to give at Easter time.

It's been over 20 years since I first read this book; I still look for the rice-cake rabbit in the moon, and my father still likes to point him out to me.

When my mother use to read this to me it taught me alot about not giving up and to always try my best and work for what I wanted in life and to follow my dreams with intensity and I also liked the way the story has been passed through the traditon of Japan and carried it values onto the modern life it was a kind and passionate story which I still to this day would read. At a young age the book had been lost and well purchasing this book again has returned a part of my life and my heartfelt memories of my time with my mom. Thank You

Why was this book taken out of print?! We need a book similar to this one for our Head Start children. Many of them have not had very much experience with doctor visits, and this book would be helpful in preparing them for our doctor checkups . The pictures are colorful and the familiar animal characters are entertaining as well as informative. END

I have to agree with the prior reviewer: why is this book out of print? Although I never spent any serious time at the doctor's, my sister came down with serious pneumonia as a child and this book really helped steady her for the experiences ahead. While I'm sure there are other books out there with similar motivation, this book was special (being R. Scarry)...

The charming story of Rosie's first loose tooth is perfectly married with marvellously executed illustrations. Very true-to-life tale. Illustrations full of character. Highly recommend!

This was an excellent book. My daughter wanted to read it again and again. The characters are funny and enjoyable.

My daughter loves to tell Max that he shouldn't put spiders on the cakes! Bright pictures, simple storyline. Perfect for a 2-yr-old Max and Ruby fan.

"Another Rosemary Wells Winner!"
Rosemary Wells has written another winner with Ruby's Tea for Two. The story follows her usual pattern: older sister Ruby tries to dictate how an activity should take place, in this case a tea party. Best friend Louise (who owns the tea set) is invited. Little brother Max is not. "One chocolate and one strawberry, please," Ruby orders newly appointed waiter Max. As usual, one-track mind Max is determined to get his way. The devious expression in Max's eyes is reason enough to get this latest addition to this lively series. The Max and Ruby books are such a hit in our house that my 3.5-year-old daughter renamed her younger sister "Max"- and she answers to it! While we saw this particular story first on TV's Nick Jr., both my girls request the book version over and over. I also recommend the recently released Max Drives Away.

I remember this story when I was a little girl. It's just the cutest little book. I haven't opened this up yet, since it's a christmas present for my daughter, but I come in Excellent condition! And the story is one that every child will enjoy!

I was extremely happy with my purchase as well as the timely manner in which I received it.

Every child should have this set! The book is worth buying by itself, but the music of Track 2 is simply beautiful! A sweet lilting folk tune that could lull anyone to sleep, Track 2 is a rare treat. This would also make a great gift for a new mother.

My children love to listen to this story. After the story is read on track one, it is performed by two folk musicians on track 2. We are really enjoying it.
