From School Library Journal
PreSchool-K–Bunny hops through a garden and is introduced to different colors and flowers along the way. The rhymed text, stilted at times, gives readers clues as to the hue that will appear on the next page. For instance, "In a cottage garden/ears and whiskers clean/Bunny finds a patch of lawn/what she sees is–Âgreen!" After she is done exploring, she curls up in her nest where she "dreams a rainbow dream/colors blossom-bright." The watercolor-and-pencil illustrations do a good job of bringing the blossoms to life: orange tiger lilies, yellow primroses, and green clover and grass are easily identifiable and gracefully drawn. Bunny has expressive features and fuzzy gray fur. This is an attractive and effective concept book and may, as such, be a useful purchase. Yet it is doubtful that the character or the presentation itself will ever gain "read it again" status.– Lisa Gangemi Kropp, Middle Country Public Library, Centereach, NY

From Booklist
PreS. Lots of books teach children to recognize colors, but this one also provides a lesson in flower identification. A bunny hops through a cottage garden, passing flowers in their beds: "Bunny hopping down the path. / What she sees is . . . " When children turn the page, they'll see the word red. The profusion of flowers is also identified: "Blushing scarlet poppies bloom / just above her head." Not all the colors are so easy to rhyme. Yellow is rhymed with willow and pillow, and because no word rhymes with orange, "o" has to suffice. These are small points, however, when factored into the book's appeal. The funny little bunny makes an amusing counterpoint to the lush flowers--violets, primroses, morning glories, lilies--that crowd the pages of this compact book. Children will learn the names of the blossoms as they enjoy recognizing and naming the colors. Ilene Cooper

This review is from: What Does Bunny See?: A Book of Colors and Flowers (Hardcover)
Maggie Smith's very colorful and appealing drawings are the highlight of a visual book of colors and flowers in Linda Sue Park's What Does Bunny See? Each page uses flowers to teach associated colors in a very easy reader for the young.

This review is from: What Does Bunny See?: A Book of Colors and Flowers (Hardcover)
This is one of my nearly 3yr old daughter's favorite books. She loves to say the colors when we get to the pages and to find all the "hidden" items like the grasshopppers and lady bugs on the pages.
5.0 out of 5 stars
