Poor Little Hare. All she wants in the whole wide world is to find some tender raspberry leaves to eat. But it seems every hop she takes is fraught with the danger of hurting a carefully camouflaged critter. ("'Ouch!' a voice cried. 'You stepped on me!' Little Hare looked, but she saw only bright green grass.") Children will love identifying the hidden animals on each page. Scientifically accurate, yet softly appealing, Denny Bond's illustrations are teeming with hidden creatures: a frog, ants, a snake, a dragonfly, a crab spider, a fox, and many others. Even Little Hare discovers she, too, can become invisible to protect herself. A perfect way to whet the appetite of budding natural scientists, Hungry Little Hare works equally well as a science lesson or a bedtime story. This is the third title in the Early Learner's Science Through Stories series of picture books for young children (after Sleepy Little Owl and Shy Little Turtle). New vocabulary and concepts are introduced in a simple, easy-to-grasp way, and soothing green-and-brown tones welcome young readers into the quiet beauty of the natural world. (Ages 4 to 8) --Emilie Coulter
