Squish Rabbit is a charming little story about a tiny rabbit, drawn only in black lines, who is feeling low because he's so small. He's so small that nobody listens to him, and sometimes he's hard to see "(Which is how he got his name)". The illustrations are fascinating in their combination of simplistic line drawings and mixed media collage. The result is a wonderful mix that really adds to the story and guarantees that kids will want to peruse these illustrations again and again.
Squish is in search of a friend, and after his attempts to make a pretend friend and to play with some unruly trees don't quite work out, he is about to give up when friendship finds him. He soon begins to feel not quite so small, and the book ends on a delightfully sweet note. Every child can identify with the notion of being small in a world that's just too big, and they are bound to find comfort in the notion that friendship might make things not feel so overwhelming. This is a great choice for any child's personal collection and a wonderful choice for preschool story time.

Small squish rabbit often loses out because of his size. He's tired of playing pretend. He wants to find a friend. Just as he throws a tantrum and falls apart, a squirrel joins the game. Small squish rabbit feels happy, and perhaps just a little bit big. Young children, ages 3-6, will learn about friendship from this adorable rabbit and his friend.

Spare, sensitive, and powerful...the illustrations in this book are beautiful, and it is deceptively simple. I read it three times before I felt like I had uncovered the hidden gems tucked away inside this exquisitely sweet book!
