Big Bad Bunny is really aggressive and self-centered. He bashes and crashes through the forest doing whatever he wants. Meanwhile, Mama Mouse and her babies are gentle and sweet. These two characters have parallel stories: Big Bad Bunny crashes around and Mama Mouse gingerly searches for her lost little one. Their stories intersect in a way that has us wondering about the "Big bad bunny" in all of us.

Baby boo gets lost in the forest while Big Bad Bunny is there. Mama will do anything to find her lost baby. Lovely representation of good and villainous characters.

Meh. The first time I flipped through, mostly looking at the illustrations and was unimpressed (considering this is on OLA's Mock Caldecott list). It took a second read through to figure out the story, and the illustrations still didn't appeal at all, although I can imagine it making for a fun read-aloud, especially to kids who are into dressing up and make-believe. But the style - and the thinness of the story - left me a little cold.

Kids will enjoy the unexpected twist toward the end. Not a very engaging story, but it could be used to practice making predictions and learning about onomatopoeia.

Sam wanted to read this one a few times. I think he mostly liked the "big bad bunny"'s big claws and her roaring about not being a "baby."

Illustrations lackluster, story only so-so.
