Editorial Reviews
From School Library Journal
PreSchool-Grade 1. In Arnosky's shimmering world, five bunnies emerge from their nest under the hedge for the very first time. Romping in the sun-drenched fields, meeting grasshoppers, spiders, and bees, the baby rabbits' curiosity is evident even as they stick close to their mother. A sudden storm causes them to hurry back and huddle inside their shelter, where other animals join them as they watch honeybees fly between the raindrops. Then the rain stops and the six reemerge to "play rabbit tag in the sun." The simple text carries readers along rhythmically and naturally as the day unfolds. Drawn from the animals' perspective, the glowing illustrations are precise in their depiction of the wildlife; the bright, vibrant watercolors flow from hot yellows and luminescent greens to the muted blues of rain. Each double-page spread draws readers into this fulfilling microcosmic view of the natural world. Perfect for story-time or lap-time reading, this book will give children a feeling of security and contentment.?Martha Topol, Traverse Area District Library, Traverse City, MI

From Booklist
Ages 3^-7. Five baby rabbits get their first chance to explore the inviting world outside their nest. They follow their mother onto the grass, taste clover, and meet grasshoppers and bees. Their adventure is cut short by a rain shower, and since "a rabbit's fur is not waterproof," the mother hustles her little ones back under the hedge, where they watch the rain with interest and share their shelter with other wild creatures. Arnosky eschews the cutsey (it's "baby rabbits," never "bunnies") for the rich beauty of rain and new baby rabbits and, as always, gives young readers a nature adventure that is simple, satisfying, and utterly straightforward.
