The Surprise Party by Pat Hutchins

olivias's review against another edition

4.0

I actually liked this book more than I expected to. The story is basically a game of broken telephone, in which Rabbit tells Owl that he's having a surprise party the next day, but the message changes as it gets passed on, and no one shows up for the party. The story has a happy, funny, sweet ending. The illustrations are unusual, but I don't mind them. Good for a party theme, for kids old enough to understand the misunderstanding. 4+
