Mini Rabbit is Not Lost by John Bond - ADVISABLE

Mini Rabbit is Not Lost by John Bond. PICTURE BOOK. Neal Porter Books (Harper Collins), 2019. $19. 9780823443581

BUYING ADVISORY: EL (K-3) - ADVISABLE 

AUDIENCE APPEAL: HIGH

Mini rabbit is making cake with his mom when they realize they are out of berries to put on top. Mini rabbit immediately takes off to look for berries and goes to great distances in his search. When he finally finds a berry he realizes he is lost and rushes back home by following the scent of cake. 

This storyline of this book is a little boring and silly, but the illustrations are bright and charming. Mini rabbit is very childlike in his rush to solve a problem without listening to his mom and I wish there were some consequences for him instead of a cake reward for running off.
