Battle Bunny by Jon Scieszka, Mac Barnett
5.0
Age: Kindergarten-2nd grade
Animals: Forest
This is ridiculously fantastic and will definitely tickle the funny bone of all older brothers (or battle-prone sisters) that have ever had to trudge through a sweet, fluffy picture book because their younger sibling wanted to read it.
The original tale in this picture book is a light romp across the forest by the birthday bunny who is trying to get his forest friends to celebrate with him. But the real recipient, Alex, of this predictable, boring book decides to liven it up a bit by creating BATTLE BUNNY by scribbling out the drab story line and adding his own, fabulous interpretation.
The fun thing about Battle Bunny is that it doesn't seem like cute humor or even child-like humor. It very much seems like something I'd replicate for my friends to laugh at (I love my friends, don't make fun of them). So, this would definitely be suitable in the hands of a second grader. If Battle Bunny were a movie, it would be along the lines of Despicable Me.
