Synopsis

Spend the day with a lovable bunny family from eight o'clock in the morning, when Father Rabbit wakes up his little bunnies, to eight o'clock at night, when Mother Rabbit tucks them into -bed. Every hour bunnies are busy doing something new: at eleven it's chore time, at one they play, and at seven story time begins. The team that created So Many Bunnies and One More Bunny make telling time fun. Rick Walton's jaunty text and Paige Miglio's warm, detailed illustrations of bunny family life will be a favorite all day long!

From School Library Journal:

PreSchool-This story actually begins on the endpapers, long before breakfast. Father Rabbit and one of his bunnies are winding up a clock in the evening. The following pages show Mother Rabbit, early in the morning, enjoying what readers will discover is a rare moment of peace. Soon she wakes her five youngsters and the day begins. During the next 12 hours, the parents shepherd their bunnies through their daily routines and activities. Each spread is filled with humor and detail, and children will want to pore over the pictures. The inclusion of the hour of the day in each accompanying four-line stanza is casual and unforced. In fact, the rhythmic text doesn't miss a beat. In each illustration, a clock corresponding to the hour mentioned in the verse is depicted quite naturally-for example, a child playing with a pocket watch at lunch or a garden clock mounted on a wall. The tale comes full circle in the final scene with the parents relaxing with a cup of tea at the end of the eventful day. A book to be enjoyed at home and at preschool.
