From School Library Journal
PreSchool-Grade 1-Daisy, a little bunny, is learning how to hop and she is frustrated by her failure. Mama Rabbit points out several other baby animals around the meadow all practicing new life skills. As Daisy watches, Little Mouse, Little Badger, and Little Duckling all falter in their attempts. She realizes that she's not alone. She keeps practicing until, in the end, she succeeds. Young children will be able to relate to this amiable tale and may be encouraged by the message. The illustrations are charming; Hansen's wispy watercolors are reminiscent of Anita Jeram's artwork in Sam McBratney's Guess How Much I Love You (Candlewick, 1995). While Freedman's story will make a nice addition to larger collections, Robert Kraus's Leo the Late Bloomer (1971) and Little Louie the Baby Bloomer (1998, both HarperCollins) handle the same topic with more playfulness and real humor.
