Rhyming Dust Bunnies by Jan Thomas

Ed, Ted, and Ned all are rhyming dust bunnies, but their fellow bunny, Bob, doesn't rhyme. Instead, he is desparately trying to warn the others about the impending dangers. This book cracked me up! My  favorite line is "Bob, no. . .'Look out! Here comes a big scary monster with a broom!' does not rhyme with anything, really." Parents and children are guarenteed lots of laughs with this colorful book.

Betty Bunny Loves Chocolate Cake by Michael B. Kaplan; Illustrated by Stephanie Jorisch

Betty Bunny loves chocolate cake so much that she announces to her family she is going to marry chocolate cake. Her mother tells her she has to eat healthy food before she have chocolate cake. Betty decides she can't wait for her chocolate cake and takes a piece with her to school with distasterous results. The author and illustrator really capture common reactions children have. This is a silly book for children of all ages.

Doctor De Soto Goes to Africa by William Steig

Doctor Bernard De Soto (the same one from Doctor De Soto) and his wife, Deborah, travel to Africa to replace a rotten molar on an elephant. But Doctor De Soto is kidnapped and missing in the jungle. Will the good dentist be found. And will the elephant's tooth get fixed? What I really liked about this delightful picture book was the cameos of characters from his previous works. A great read for any age.
