Praise for this book

"Richard Scarry has some competition in this effort, which follows a toddler-age bunny and his mother around town on their errands. Neatly encapsulates the three-ring circus that is a little tyke's world and gives children an opportunity to practice all kinds of skills." --Kirkus Reviews

"With spreads jam-packed with detail and event . . . it's an undeniable feast for the eyes." --Publishers Weekly

"This spirited picture book is as much fun to browse through as it is to read, and it could spark classroom discussions about neighborhoods and community workers." --School Library Journal

"Classic and contemporary feeling, this echoes both Golden Books and Richard Scarry...The scenes could be interpreted as set anywhere from Manhattan to Meadow Lakes, Alaska, thereby making this relatable to a wide range of youngsters." --Booklist
