One of our Favs

My daughter LOVES this book. We just got KNUFFLE BUNNY TOO and we've read it so many times she can almost read it from memory.

What a FABULOUS book

This book is GREAT. My daughter loves the pictures and has the whole thing memorized. So many of our kids have that one special stuffed animal or blanket that gets dragged all over town and has been through the wash 15 times. This is the story of the day Knuffle Bunny gets left behind at the laundromat and consequently, Trixie's first words.

It hits home with a few things to which many children can relate. The story has a special toy, the repitition of going to the laundromat passing landmarks on the way, then going back again in search of Knuffle Bunny, and the use of various prepositions such as in, down, through, past, and until.

And to the reviewers who believe that the book is not enjoyable because the child has a tantrum, I disagree. Tantrums in young children who can not yet talk are common, and I think this book helps to teach kids that 1) they need to use thier words and 2) they are not alone in sometimes feeling frustrated.

If tantrums are an issue for you at this stage, I believe this book offers a great opportunity to talk about using words to express feelings.

And to the 1-star reviewer who said they'd stick thier kid in the dryer with Knuffle Bunny, I can't believe they published your review, but I hope your life gets better.

Hilarious! My children were hysterically laughing.

Several friends had highly recommended this book to us and we bought it for my nieces birthday and our son's birthday. My sister called to tell me that my 2 year old niece wouldn't let this book out of her sight, she loved it so much. We just received the book for my 3 year old son today and read it 5 times in a row to him. Each time he laughed louder than the last time. He has a blanket that probably reminds him of Knuffle-Bunny, but the real winner in this book are the screams and yells from Trixie when she realizes her stuffed animal was left at the laundromat. These led to the side-splitting laughter and fun of this book. Both of us highly recommend this for any fun-loving, giggling toddler.

Such a cute book

I can't imagine why some parents don't like this book. One parent thought this book was more for "Manhatten babies" whatever that may mean. This story doesn't even take place in Manhatten. Well it's a cute story and whenever my husband reads it to our children he can't stop himself from laughing at the boneless part. I also read one parent thinking it encouraged tantrums. Geesh, it's clearly meant to be a comedy, trying to make light of those silly quirks of toddlers. This child in the story is frustrated that she can't get her meaning across to her dad, so she has to yell. All in all, it's a very cute book and if you like this one you will like "Knuffle Bunny, Too" also by Mo Willems, which features a preschool aged Trixie.
