Caldecott Honor Book.Have I mentioned how much I love Knuffle Bunny? These are some of the best laugh-out-loud picture books out there. Trixie and her best friend, Knuffle Bunny, are drawn in light pastels, and with a broad simplicity that is bound to entertain young children, but the “reality” of the childlike dialog and the subtle looks of exasperation on the faces of the adult characters make these books hysterical to adults. That, and the background, created with real photos from New York city, make the Knuffle Bunny books far more layered than one would expect. These are truly picture books that can be enjoyed by all … and don’t miss the “epilogue” in Knuffle Bunny Too – it left me on the floor!
