Book Review: 'Boo, Bunny!' by Kathryn O. Galbraith

✰✰✰✰½ One shy bunny sets out on a dark Halloween night. The noises all around are frightening. Just when the timid bunny is about to run away, a new friend is made. Together, paw in paw, they bravely knock on a door and shout, "Trick or Treat!" Will they receive a trick or a treat? Pick up a copy of this festive Halloween book to find out.     

The Bottom Line: This sweet tale of friendship overcoming shyness is perfect for tots who are a bit afraid to go trick-or-treating. The simple, large text with rhyming words is easy to read for beginning readers. Mack's colorful acrylic illustrations are expressive, sweet, and just a tiny bit spooky. This is the perfect pick for story time or to read alone with your child. Highly recommended for kids ages 3 - 6.
