The book "Little Bunny on the Move" written and illustrated by Peter McCarty follows the journey of a little white bunny through the woods. Throughout the story the reader does not know where the little bunny is going while he makes his way on his journey. The reader asks the bunny where he is going, but the bunny keeps on moving. The bunny is even stopped by a little girl looking to give the bunny a good, loving home. At the end of the story, the reader find out the bunny was looking to join wi...more

I never get tired of reading this book and admiring the illustrations. The story is a simple story but the plot is fun to follow with young readers. The narrator keeps asking the bunny, "where are you going?" and the bunny does not say till the very end. Also, the illustrations of the bunny on the move are elegant and enjoyable. The bunny is constantly on the move but it doesn't hop. Instead, the bunny is shown walking upright everywhere on its two-feet. The bunny also has the features of a cudd...more

Little Bunny on the Move is about a rabbit who travels across a farm. Along the way, the bunny meets several animals, and even a young girl, but nothing stops him from reaching his home. I enjoy reading all of McCarty's books, but this one was not my favorite. The text seems too simple and the pictures are pencil drawings, so it is not all that interesting. I would have preferred more color and variety. In the future, I will probably not make a special effort to have this in my classroom because...more

More beautiful illustrations (I'd like to frame these someday for a nursery). Very sweet and soothing, maybe a good naptime/bedtime read for 1-2-3 year-olds. Would it hold their attention a million times in a row? Probably not. But I'm a huge fan of the pencil and watercolor style. Very sweet.

Charlotte loved this bunny book.

Illustrations were second-to-none, but the story was a little thin.
Skylar Burris
The story is nothing much, but the pictures are very appealing. The bunny is adorable.

Recommended to Eunice by: Susan
this book is like a warm fuzzy hug. the images themselves are seen as if through a soft-focus lens and the story is told in such an oh-so-very-quiet hushed tone that you almost feel its diaphonousness will allow it to be blown away with any harsh breathing. the images are gorgeous and the story of the single-minded bunny intent on going "where he must" is endearing.

It was a bit boring for me to read this to my daughter. I used a sing song voice because there wasn't a fun dialogue. My daughter pointed to the cow and mooed, she also pointed to the little girl so she seemed fine by the book. She is also 2 and eats crayons.

Most of my childhood was spent in my head. I was usually recreating a battle from World War II or running from dinosaurs in prehistoric times. To this day, I develop characters and environments based on worlds I first creat...more
