This is a neat bit of artwork. He took pictures of real life settings and drew cartoons onto the setting to tell this story. I love it!It is a simple beginning story. The child and father go to the laundry mat to wash clothes and the tot gets the stuffed bunny stuck in the washing machine unintentionally. The tot goes crazy and its the mom who figures it out. Its a very cute story.I was just reading dont let the pigeon drive the bus yesterday and saying how I dont like Mos artwork, but I findIn this popular childrens picture book, Knuffle Bunny, Trixie, and her father take a walk to run some errands. After a stop at the laundry mat they head back home. Suddenly, Trixie realizes something is amiss. Because Trixie is a small child, she doesnt have the words to communicate to her father what is bothering her. When they arrive home, Trixies mother knows right away what is wrong. Trixie, father, and mother rush out the door to make it right. Knuffle Bunny is creatively illustrated
I'd give this book extra stars if I could (5 is so limiting, no?) for the amount of times the phrase "she went boneless" has made me laugh at completely random moments during my work day. It's a perfect description of what toddlers do during a tantrum. You know, when they collapse on the ground (this is great fun in a public place) making them nearly impossible to lift. I also happen to love these illustrations, with simply rendered drawings superimposed on black and white urban scenery
Now while on a nostalgic and personal level Mo Willems' Knuffle Bunny: A Cautionary Tale sure does resonate (for I too once misplaced a treasured plush rabbit as a toddler), I really do not all that much like the accompanying illustrations. As sorry, but I have always been rather easily creeped out by especially cartoon-like images and little Trixie with her overly large and bulging eyes really does almost give me the proverbial willies so to speak (and therefore, while I can appreciate Mo
I really love the incorporation of photos of real places and the paintings (not at all realistic) of the characters and other objects that make up this books illustrations.The story of a lost favorite toy of a preverbal child will strike a chord with young children.
Ah, Knuffle Bunny is a classic for a reason. Funny and creative and a great read-aloud. I love the mix of cartoony illustrations and black and white photos, and the story is relatable to all parents and kids. I think my favorite part of the books is the expressions on the parents' faces, starting with the photo album in front.
The PandaBat loves this, even though she's never had a special stuffed animal or blanket or anything.***The PandaBat has always loved Knuffle Bunny. Which is not as ominous as it sounds. It's a good thing, really.2007 Dec 20She really loves Mo Willems, too. The Elephant and Piggy books, the Pigeon books, all of it, except that one travel book. Which she doesn't get.***2008 Jul 12If there's a baby coming into the life of someone you know, give the Knuffle Bunny and the two sequels. They will love
