John searches worldwide for the best photographers to include in the series and then selects the best combination of photographs and rhymes. One photographer sent him over 2500 pictures to review; the book needed only 19. Making BUSY books, John is able to combine his immense joy of looking at high-quality photographs with his love of writing books for young children.

I never bother writing reviews although I guiltily admit to relying heavily on them before making purchases. I stumbled across this adorable book and can't believe there are only two other reviews so far! A variety of live bunnies doing busy activities make it a visually interesting and fun book for youngsters and the fact it's a board book make it a favorite for youngsters to tote aorund. I purchased it for my two young nephews and they love it so much, it's now become a standard baby shower present I give. Absolutely adorable! Based upon the few reviews here, if you purchase it as a gift for a friend's child, chances aren't they won't already have it. Buy it, it'll be a quick favorite!

The pictures of real bunnies are just precious. Inside each page has a two-word "activity" that rhymes with the next page. You just can't go wrong with pictures of cute rabbits and the cute things they do. I bought this book for a baby shower for a collection of baby books with a bunny theme. I included the classics "Pat the Bunny" and "Good Night Moon" and then added from there.
