Praise for THE READING RABBIT:
"I read THE READING RABBIT to my children and they enjoyed it. Then I read it to my 2-year-old's nursery school class and I got the same positive reaction to this refreshing picture book. THE READING RABBIT is an imaginative way of reinforcing the joy of reading, and reading together, and the idea that all creatures and people are unique and special."--Kristan Bridges, parent and FriendSmart program developer

"Children will delight in the charming tale of THE READING RABBIT. The illustrations and rhyme in this book support early reading skills and will engage young readers. It will be a "must" in our school library."--Lynn G. Bigelman, elementary school principal, past president, Michigan Reading Association
