Review

Adorable bunnies are not ready for bed but Mom provides just the right stimulation and affection to get them all tucked in as well as tuckered out. Berger's collages of three bunnies in various sizes as well as Mom and the bunny doll provide light and detail in contrast to the dark night time backdrop. Simple clothing items and line drawn facial features are perfectly balanced by the special additions like the monster mask and recurring star motif. The story line is not new but certainly full of energy as the bunny family works its way through the stores, song, hugs, kisses and then little bunny mandated extras. This is a silly but loving bedtime story that is bound to please adult readers and young listeners. Add to preschool collections in libraries and gift to tired Moms everywhere.

Overall Book Score: very good
