Lisa McCue does a wonderful job of not only crafting a story for children, but hiding some work inside. No, this is not a Where's Waldo? book, this is a book to help kids with speech development. And it does it without them noticing.
The story follows a bunny who wants to be a part of the nighttime sounds, but finds that he can't make any. The birds tweet and the crickets ch-cheet. But bunny doesn't make a sound.
Not to worry, he finds a way to join in the night songs but you'll need to wait until the end to find out how.
*Mrs. McCue was kind enough to appear at the local bookshop Jabberwocky a few weeks back to sign books. Thanks to both for being so nice!

Hey, I recognize those 2 white bunnies in the bottom photo.....
Probably the only one that would. And I had no idea Elizabeth had that many stuffed bunnies either. Scary!
those white bunnies in the bottom photo are badass...where can I get me some? :)
Not sure. They came from my grandmother (my mom's mom).
hmm. perhaps I could win them from you somehow...or distract you with pretty lights...and run out the door with them or something equally clever...
Seeing as they would be considered family heirlooms, I don't think you'd make it far. But of course a city girl like yourself would have a hard time out here in the sticks without getting lost.
