Knuffle Bunny A wonderful picture book by Mo Willems, a young and talented American author who has won the Caldecott Honor an impressive three times. This is the follow-up to his 2005 Caldecott Award-winning book Knuffle Bunny, telling the story of Trixie, now grown up enough to go to preschool. With a clean, engaging story and distinctive artwork, this book captures the special joy a small stuffed bunny can bring to a child's heart. Trixie walks hand in hand with her dad, eager to get to preschool. Her heart is bursting with excitement to show off her one-of-a-kind bunny to her friends. But when she finally arrives and goes looking for someone to show her bunny to, she discovers that Sonja has a bunny that looks exactly like hers! From this moment on, Trixie experiences a day she'll never forget... This picture book stands out with its charming combination of black-and-white photographic backgrounds and delicate, minimalist ink sketches. The comical expressions of Trixie and her little bunny beautifully convey the mood of the story. Knuffle Bunny also received a Caldecott Honor in 2008. Knuffle Bunny Too: A Case of Mistaken Identity The sequel to the Caldecott Honor-winning Knuffle Bunny — a story about growth through meeting and parting, and the treasured memories of childhood! Trixie sets off on an exciting trip to the Netherlands with her parents to visit her grandparents. Of course, her most precious friend, her beloved bunny doll, comes along too. But disaster strikes when the bunny gets left behind on the airplane. The bunny has gone missing again! This is the biggest crisis Trixie and her little bunny have ever faced. Trixie tries her best to enjoy going to cafes with her family and swinging at the playground with her grandmother, but she can't stop missing her beloved bunny. After captivating children around the world in 2008 with Knuffle Bunny — a gentle, heartfelt story that reveals a world only children can truly see — Mo Willems returns two years later with this next chapter. Known for his heartfelt portrayal of children's emotions and his genuine connection with young readers (earning him a Caldecott Honor), Willems uses his signature playful blend of photography and illustration to show how Trixie grows into a child who understands others' happiness through the experience of losing her beloved bunny once again.
