Synopsis
One little bunny learns the power of books, facts, and libraries on her quest to make her perfect sandwich.
When Bunny's sandwich-making plans are disrupted by a lack of jelly, she knows what to do--she'll make her own! After asking her brother, neighbor, father, and grandmother how to make jelly, though, and getting absolutely no right answers, Bunny starts to despair! Will she ever get to make her perfect sandwich? It's only when Bunny learns to look for information in just the right place--the library--that she finds the answers she's been looking for.
In this fun and fact-affirming story about solving problems with good information, readers learn the right way to find the answers they need--with bold and appealing art by Andrew Joyner, the illustrator of Dr. Seuss's Horse Museum.

Reviews
PreS-Gr 2-It's simple, really. Young Bunny just wants grape jelly for her peanut butter sandwich, but the fridge is empty. "No sweetness. No stickiness. No purpleness." Anywhere. So Bunny starts asking her family for help, and the answers are just a little misleading. Joyner's playful cartoon art, via pencil and digital editing, feature the animated faces of Bunny and those around her in colorfully detailed scenes of a somewhat old-fashioned world. Her busy mother and brother pause to give advice and smart neighbor Kitty shares magic words, a bunch of grapes in a bowl, and glitter, while Bunny's hard-at-work dad mentions something about "squished-up grapes and sugar." Clearly, no one can agree upon a simple recipe, including a roundtable of domino-playing older animals. Bunny finally remembers the place where she could always find answers-the school library. That leads to a nice final scene of Bunny in the kitchen with her mother. VERDICT A recipe for success, this is a general purchase to please inquisitive readers, with nuts-and-bolts advice and a sweet dollop of sugar.-Mary Elam, Learning Media Services, Plano I.S.D., TXα(c) Copyright 2011.
