Battle Bunny

Product Information

Short-listed for Colorado Children's Book Award (Picture Book) 2015 and Beehive Awards (Picture Book) 2016. Laurie, I was thinking of giving this to Iris for her birthday but since I decided on something else in the end, now you guys should get it from the library if you haven't already.

Well Alex thinks Birthday Bunny is lame so he decides to make up his own story, crossing out and erasing words, adding new words and pictures to create Battle Bunny. International products have separate terms, are sold from abroad and may differ from local products, including fit, age ratings, and language of product, labeling or instructions.Battle Bunny leaves me with this thought: "Everybody needs an Evil Plan Place where they can launch their Evil Plans. The pictures are cute and funny without being sappy and while I don't agree with Battle Bunny's plan to slice up Mount Everest, knock over the Eiffel Tower, rip off one of the Statue of Liberty's arms and to drain all the power from the sun, I do admire his energy and ambition.

It had to be someone capable of drawing not just a mockery of ootsy-cutesy bunny tales, but also a realistic kid/stick drawing style. Watching that short, as Daffy is being rubbed out of existence by an eraser I like to think about those kids seeing the short for the first time. Battle Bunny looks for all the world like a run-of-the-mill, bland and slightly sentimental early reader which its boy owner has outgrown and which he has imaginatively and extensively altered to tell a story that he finds much more exciting and in which he has a starring role. When you put two comical authors together like Jon Scieszka and Mac Barnett, you know you're going to be laughing out loud! Yes, what was a seemingly sweet book about a birthday bunny gets changed by Alex's wild imagination and his pencil to a book about an evil Battle Bunny, plotting to take over the world, destroying the forest and anyone who would try to get in his way.The cover, retitled Battle Bunny, now features rockets, planes, bombs, and a general promise of mayhem. When it comes to defending humanity against the Primordians, nobody knows better than Battle Bunny Tibbers how to fight like an animal! While you're at it, be sure to check out the fun "Battle Bunny" book trailer at http://mybirthdaybunny. Gone is the tale of a rabbit trying to work out if any of his animal friends have remembered his birthday and instead we get an epic battle of bunny versus the animal kingdom.

Jon tells me they are planning on providing a copy of The Birthday Bunny online for kids to print out and rework just as Alex did. The original text is supposed to be an authentic-feeling 1950s style story of a Bunny visiting all of his forest friends. At this point, personal opinion will come to the fore – do you like the idea of a book being ruined? Award-winning authors Jon Scieszka and Mac Barnett have teamed up to create a wildly funny story in which a Birthday Bunny turns his very own special day into Battle Day!Summary: We have all had rubbish presents in our time, but for one youngster the latest gift from his Granny is too much.
