Reviews

The stunning black and white illustrations are augmented with a spot of yellow, giving an intriguing highlight on some pages, while the ‘Uh-oh’ is always on a yellow page, contrasting with the black and white pages. The endpapers add another level of interest which young readers will love, scanning their eyes over the things they have read about but seeing a few more things that Rabbit tries out with similar disastrous endings. A very funny book for the young toddler, strongly constructed and with thicker pages for them to look at time and time again, and offering a starter for talks about keeping yourself safe.

The Rabbit series is perfect for toddlers and would make a great gift for new babies. Highly recommended.

Kids Book Review

Uh-Oh! Rabbit & Yippee! Rabbit are fun, playful and perfect for very young ones. Two separate days of adventurous pursuits and exhilarating endeavours introduce the concepts of stop and go and up and down through the most joyous artwork and delightful phrasing. Rabbit’s escapades also offer great starting points for conversations around cause and effect and actions and consequences.
