This was one of my favorite books as a child, and I was delighted to find it again as an adult, and read it to my child. A bunny bounds through the early spring, and, in his search for a home, talks with several other animals. It's beautiful simplicity explains why it is an enduring classic. It will always have a place on the shelves of our family library.

Brown's text, read aloud, does go 'loppity loppity lop' just like a rabbit moving along. And only Williams could make newborn robins cute. Too bad that modern children and their grown-ups probably think books like this saccharine. *I* think it's just sweet.

In my opinion, this was a great informational story that contained many animal characters and the plot is easy to follow. Several of the animal characters bunny comes across, inform the bunny that their holes or nests are not what bunny needs for shelter. They are believable and hold true to their eating habits and habitats. The plot takes bunny to various animals shelters. There is no true logically order in the story, however, the plot does contain a beginning, middle and end. The overall message of this story is to inform readers about various animals but focuses on bunny finding the right shelter.
