Battle Bunny by Scieszka, Jon Illustrator:Myers, Matthew 9781442446731



The King of Snark has done it again. Jon Scieszka has delivered a witty tale that skewers children’s lit of yesteryear. Strikingly designed to look like a damaged Little Golden Book, this book stars Alex, a young revisionist who takes it upon himself to “transform” the insipid story about a “birthday bunny” into a macho action figure: “BattleBunny”. After all, what young man would be thrilled with a birthday book about a tame little bunny when his mind is full of danger and destruction? Armed with a pencil, birthday bunny gains a menacing eyepatch, a WWF wrestling belt and an Evil Plan. Parents, please keep the pencils away from library books, but do share this delightful romp with your little guys.
