Some things in life are too big. Some are too small. And the best things are just right. In this appealing picture book by the author of Cinder-Elly and Sleepless Beauty, opposites are explored in the context of friendship. Two bunny buddies shop for bikes (one's way too big, another is too small, and the last one, a tandem, is just right), go dancing (with partners too short and too tall until they find each other again--just right!), and experience nightlife in a tent (too dark, too bright, just right). Seems they never get it right until they team up--just like the best friendships.

Young readers will be tickled by the humorous details in each vignette, especially the faithful little mouse that accompanies the pink and yellow rabbits on all their excursions. Frances Minters's simple, repetitive text, illustrated with Janie Bynum's smiley watercolor rabbits and elephants and pigs and bears, is just right. (Ages 2 to 5) --Emilie Coulter
