The ABC Bunny takes children through the alphabet with each letter and has one kind of animal.
This book is a really good book for children who are just learning the alphabet because they put each letter with an animal so they will remember.
For this book, I could have the children think of another
Another extension would be have the children draw that animal with the letter and see the different ways each child expresses that animal.

The ABC Bunny is a book about a bunny and his journey through the forest. He see's all kinds of animals and different scenary. The alphabete travels along with his journey going through each letter and naming something that is happening.
This book remined me of books that I read when I was little.
i think this book would only be good for a younger audience. It tells a simple story that the children can follow. I would have them make their own story and go through the alphabete that way. I would also have them think of othe ways you can make an alphabete book.

I lived in Germany and spoke german first so I have a lot of alphabete books in English because I had to go to American school. So it brought back a lot of memories for me and want to read it to my son.i think this book would only be good for a younger audience. It tells a simple story that the children can follow.

This book would be good for kindergarten learning the alphabet. It has a fun song the class could learn how to sing. It would be fun to make your own alphabet book after reading this one.

This is a great book for last kindergarteners and early 1st graders to read to emphasize letters and letter sounds. The book is about a bunny and involves all of the letters to make a cute poem about the bunny. The pictures are not the best, but the poem definitely makes up for it. I would

Originally published in 1933 by the same author of Millions of Cats. It's an ABC book with a song to go with it written by the author's sister and hand lettered by her brother that appears at the end.

This book begins with a bunny sleeping in her bed. All of a sudden, an apple falls onto the bunny and she runs away. Throughout the entire book, the bunny is going to different places and experiencing and seeing all sorts of things. The bunny sees frogs, lizards, kittens, and experiences a bad

storm with hail. The buuny talks about how she was getting hungry and came upon a garden to she ate some lunch. In the end, the bunny makes it back to bunnytown. This book is great for teaching the alphabet because the first letters on the pages go in alphabetical order (A for apple, B for bunny, etc.). I really enjoyed this book and thought it was fun to read. Show Less

In this book Wanda Gag had elaborated each letter of the alphabet to describe the characteristics of rabbits. Gag also had pictures of the rabbits doing as the word would say.
This book seems older than most, but it has a main idea that catches children's attention, and that is bunnies. Children
With this book I could read it to the children at daycare because the children always see little bunnies hoping around outside on the playground. I could also read this book when it is Easter time.

I thought this was a well orchestrated book for content. I think the pages needed more color, but that it wasn't distracting to the reader. It introduces letters using animals for a differnt aspect. For example; it's told by a bunny and how each letter corresponds to its daily activities and

This book goes through the alphabet using simple words that begin with that letter. The book also rhymes the words within the descriptions as the bunny in the book goes on many adventures and meets different animals along the way.

Holds up well, not sentimental, feels nostalgic but not old-fashioned. The art was truly poetic, and realistic (again, not sentimental or cutesy). I loved that some of the Words for the Letters were verbs as most alphabet picture-books rely on nouns.
