My Friend Rabbit

My Friend Rabbit, written and illustrated Eric Rohmann. This is a story with minimal text, but the story is rich with visual dialog as Rabbit tries to get his friend mouses' airplane out of a tree, with the help of the other animals in the forest. I was told by a very trusted librarian from my elementary school days, "Don't be afraid to go for the simple books, they can be great spark books." This is a silly story that kids love to add their own words to, and the thick thins make the illustrations makes these pictures just pop into your mind. Rabbit did get that plane, however Mouse and Rabbit ended up in the tree with the plane, but don't worry, Rabbit has an idea! So I guess the question I would ask my students concerning this book would be, how would you get the plane down? How can we think differently? Thinking outside the box is what I would want my students to gain from this story.
