Review

Rabbit Stew is apt to cause some discomfort as the reader makes a guess regarding the ingredients of this special stew. Wahman prolongs some fear till the very last page but readers will not complain as this is a fun read and well-illustrated book. There is lots to look at and be amused by in the large and colorful illustrations. Two page spreads provide space for hidden critters above and below ground.

An ideal use would be in a nursery school environment where children are read to at circle time. The poor binding however does not lend itself to library collections where the book may only survive one or two circulations.

Overall Book Score: good
