"Bunny Bungalow" isn't so much a story as a celebration of cosy domestic life. In well-turned verse couplets, it explains how the bunny family (Mom, Dad, three kids and baby) set up house in a bungalow and "made it all their own" by decorating it (including a carrot weathervane) and living in it (baths, picnics, playing, bedtime, etc.) All of this is skillfully illustrated with simple strokes and appropriate washes of color. This is a quiet, cheerful book with no conflict in it, and will make a soothing singsong read-aloud for preschoolers.

Both my toddler and I really enjoy this book about how a bunny family sets up its new home - all members working and playing together in the process. The pictures give quite a bit of detail while maintaining a cozy feel. Accompanying the visual are sing-song rhymes(about 4 lines per page). It's a very nice book to wind down.

This beautifully illustrated book provides a easily understandable story about a young girl's relationship with her two grandmothers of different faiths. A well put together book with a topic that is not often dealt with by authors. My only criticism is that the grandmothers are somewhat stereotypical. Otherwise, a useful tool for interfaith families.

This book is must read for young children that have Jewish and Christian parents. The book is an easy read and demostrates how a child can celebrate the holiday traditions with both grandmothers. The book also shows how both families can make their own join traditions.
