    <![CDATA[A young rabbit wakes up to wonderful news: A snow day! School is canceled, and the day that follows is rich with the magic and delight of the falling snow. And yet there is longing too, as the young rabbit and his mother wait for news of his father, grounded on a plane in a faraway city.... The news that his father will be home tomorrow gives the book a peaceful, comforting, and perfect ending. <p></p>]]>

    <![CDATA[One day, Emily gets a balloon. By the end of the afternoon, the balloon is no longer just a plaything. Emily and the balloon are friends. But when the balloon blows away, what will Emily do?

    <![CDATA[Der kleine Hase ist böse auf seine Mama und fühlt sich arg vernachlässigt: Nie hat sie Zeit für ihn! Am Sonntag schläft sie lange, obwohl er doch Hunger hat. Ständig schimpft sie mit ihm und hetzt ihn, obwohl sie selber rum trödelt. Außerdem, außerdem, außerdem ... Dem Hasensohn fallen so viele Dinge ein, weshalb er seine Hasenmama ganz doof findet. Das Schlimmste ist allerdings, dass er sie nicht heiraten kann -- nicht einmal wenn er ganz groß ist. Deshalb beschließt der kleine Hase ganz allein ganz weit weg zu gehen. Dummerweise muss er noch einmal umkehren, weil er seinen Ball vergessen hat.<p> Die einfach gehaltene Geschichte konzentriert sich ebenso wie die Bilder auf das Wesentliche: Obwohl dem kleinen Hasenjungen zum Davonlaufen zu Mute ist, will er doch eigentlich nichts anderes als ganz nah bei seiner Mama sein. Der Japanerin Komako Sakai gelingt es mit wenigen, aber treffenden Worten und einfühlsamen Zeichenstrichen diesen Widerspruch zwischen trotziger Beschwerde und inniger Kuschelsehnsucht perfekt Ausdruck zu verleihen. Die Bilder zeigen die Welt aus der Sicht des Kindes und sind dementsprechend übersichtlich strukturiert. Auch Größenverhältnisse und die Bedeutsamkeit einzelner Bildelemente sind dem Empfinden des Kindes angepasst: Manchmal passt die Hasenmama noch nicht einmal ganz auf die Seite. Die in Pastellfarben gehalten Zeichnungen vermitteln ein Gefühl von der Verletzlichkeit des kleinen Hasen, ohne dabei kitschig zu wirken oder die Figuren zu sehr zu verniedlichen. Ein warmherziges und humorvolles Bilderbuch, in dem sich Kinder und Eltern sicher bei der einen oder anderen Begebenheit wieder erkennen dürften. Empfohlen ab drei Jahren. <em>--Birgit  Schwenger</em></p>]]>
