The little built in bunny finger puppet is something my little girl will beg to use.
Illustrations are good and have plenty of additional animas beyond just the bunny and its family. (So great to have your toddler tell you what else she sees.)
My only wish was it was a little longer. Only 4 or so pages and not many words.
As far as board books go, this author is great. Kudos Gillingham. I think board books when they are reviewed, get stiffed because they are so simple. But these are great tools for pre-literature children and improve greatly early literacy skills in a multitude of methodology. The finger puppets are darling, and sturdy, making this purchase really a bang for you buck. These books are simple glimpses into ecosystems and the habits of animals, while still being great bed time reads. Excellent visual aid for those types of learners, and the series show layers and depth through cutouts, adorable simple illustrations with a color palette that is accurate (Pastels for spring) with tactile aid (touching the puppet), as well as the ability for the child to hone fine motor skills and practice oral repetition by in turn reading the parent the book. Excellent board book series. This particular book, In My Meadow, does a fantastic job of touch all of these points I have spoke of. Some of the others in the series aren't as good.
My 29 month old and me love rabbits. We also have a pet rabbit named Peeps. She also loves bringing me Puppets at the our library. So when I found finger puppet rabbit book I immediately checked it from the library. I absolutely loved this book and added it to her Christmas wishlist.
