About this title

Synopsis

Rosie Rabbit demonstrates such opposites as hot and cold, front and back, big and small, and up and down

Reviews

PreS?On simple, uncluttered pages, Rosie, a round, overall-clad white rabbit, introduces four basic concepts. The books are illustrated in primary colors with appealing illustrations. Texts of Numbers and Opposites simply report the action on each page with no unnecessary expounding: "Three Flowers," "Inside the House." Colors and Shapes use questions to illustrate the concepts: "What color is the grass?" "How many circles do you see?" Bright colors and a plump, anthropomorphic rabbit help in making these titles interesting to children. If you need more board books, these are a reasonable selection?nothing outstanding, nothing offensive.?Christy Norris Blanchette, Valley Cottage Library, NY

Yee juxtaposes images of Rosie the rabbit's front and back, Rosie on a hot day and a cold day, Rosie under an umbrella and over a gate. It's the most unique of an otherwise average set of board books, in which Rosie teaches toddler's basic skills: Rosie Rabbit's Numbers, Rosie Rabbit's Shapes, and Rosie Rabbit's Colors. The bright paintbox colors and Rosie herself are the primary attractions for very young readers, but authors such as Rosemary Wells and Byron Barton did it first, and did it better.
