"Rabbit means well, but wherever he goes trouble follows" is a sentence that is repeat throughout the book. A brand-new airplane of Rabbit's friend, Mouse, begins the source of his trouble. Rabbit tries to correct the problem with the brand-new airplane, but only causes more and more problems. Even though, Rabbit is a friend and means well he can certainly cause problems, but Mouse stands by his friend, Rabbit.
The illustration
s on the front cover grabbed my attention. Using bright colors and the image of a rabbit, with a perplexed look on his face, all appeal to my curiosity. The title and the perplexed look on Rabbit's face seem to contradict each other, which peaked my interest and inspired me to read the story. Readers who enjoy and love animal stories, like myself, will enjoy this story and will soon add this book to their list of favorites.Time Flies is one of Eric Rohmann's Caldecott Honor Award book. Its wordless features, adventurous storyline and detailed and captivating illustrations hold the interest of its readers. A Kitten Tale is another light-hearted and humorous story that will appeal to younger readers.
Even though the story consists of very few sentences and a simple plot, it successfully conveyed its message of overlooking flaws of best friends. Rohmann achieved this by incorporating a situation common to most children and humorous illustrations.
