Book Reviews of Pat the Bunny (Touch and Feel Book)
Book Review: a timeless classic, but too fragile for little ones.
Summary: 2 Stars
This "Pat the Bunny" book is exactly like the one I got for my boys 20 years ago when they were small. It's cute and inventive, but it is NOT sturdy enough for toddlers. Ours fell apart right away. Also the story and activities were not especially engaging for my boys. If you do buy it, I suggest that you put it out of the child's reach after you read it. Or buy high-quality board books instead.
As an aside, couple of terrific bunny-books that I recommend for youngsters are: "The Country Bunny and the Golden Shoes", (I can't say enough praises about this it, though it was published in 1939!), and "Home for a Bunny", a beautiful Golden Book. The story is sweet, and the illustrations so beautiful that I still love to look at them. Amazon has the "big version" which is hard backed. The "Country Bunny" is sold in the soft-cover version here.
Summary of Pat the Bunny (Touch and Feel Book)
For over 50 years, Pat the Bunny has held a special place as Baby's First Book...and as a perennial bestseller. Since its first publication in 1940, Pat the Bunny has sold over 6 million copies, making it the number 6 all- time bestselling children's hardcover book*. Play along with Paul and Judy as they smell the flowers, look in the mirror, play peek-a-boo, and, of course, pat the bunny.*Publisher's Weekly, 2/5/96
"Judy can pat the bunny. Now YOU pat the bunny." Sound familiar? Pat the Bunny is a part of childhood, as soothing as cocoa and animal crackers. Dorothy Kunhardt's interactive book for babies and toddlers was one of the first of its kind when it was published in 1940, and it has since sold over six million copies. We pat the soft fur of the bunny, play peek-a-boo, look in the mirror, and then do it all over again. (And again and again and again.) After you Pat the Bunny with your baby, why not Pat the Cat and Pat the Dog? These two sequels were written by Edith Kunhardt, the daughter of the author of the original book. Both use the same tried-and-true Pat the Bunny format: sturdy cardboard pages with eight activities that wee ones can explore, from sniffing some brownies, to squeaking a teddy bear, to unfastening Grandma's tennis shoe. The simple line drawings and pastel colors don't do much for adults, but somehow they are just right for babies. This boxed set is a fine choice for a baby gift or first birthday present, and a lifesaver on a long car trip. (Baby to preschool) --Marcie Bovetz
