5.0 out of 5 stars Silly, Fun, and Educational Too, November 27, 2000

This review is from: Bunches and Bunches of Bunnies (Paperback)

This book is an absolute scream!

Believe it or not, my college bookstore actually carried this item. As a pre-exam stress break, I picked it up and started thumbing through it. I laughed so hard that I had to buy it.

_Bunches...of Bunnies_ is a book written to teach children the wonders of multiplication in a fun, silly way. Low on text, and high on pictures, this is meant for the just-learning-to-read set.

I just think the pictures are so adorable. Unlike a typical children's book, in _Bunches...of Bunnies_, the expressive and sometimes mischevious bunnies are featured doing everything from going to school to playing pool.

I can't wait until I become an aunt, as I plan to buy this for all my nieces and nephews.

5.0 out of 5 stars One of the Best Bunny Books Ever, April 24, 2000

By 

DeeAnna Shyrer (New Milford, CT) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Bunches and Bunches of Bunnies (Paperback)

I had this book when I was a child, and has remained with me through the years. Children will enjoy how the bunnies multiply, and the repetition of phrases is an excellent learning tool. Also, the rhyming will keep their attention. Simply a wonderful, snuggle-up-with-your-kids and read it book! Both parents and children alike will love it.

5.0 out of 5 stars An easy way to learn squares, September 28, 2000

This review is from: Bunches and Bunches of Bunnies (Paperback)

I had this book when it first came out, but rediscovered it recently. What I always remembered was the simple but engaging way the multiplicative squares (1 x 1, 2 x 2, etc.) are presented -- with increasingly large groups of bunnies. Easy rhymes and darling pictures help beginning mathematicians grasp the underlying concept of multiplication without being overt about it. Younger childern will simply like all the bunnies doing silly things.
