Rabbit and Dad are headed to the park on a beautiful summer day. Dad asks Rabbit to get ready. Rabbit tries to bring a bunch of different belongings, then he tries on several different outfits, and then he gets distracted by other toys. Once Rabbit is ready then Dad gets distracted by a phone call from his mom. Then he needs to get his jacket. and look for his glasses and his keys. Finally, they are ready to go to the park.
Henrichs does a beautiful job of capturing the routine of getting out the door with a parent and child and the different distractions and challenges of looking for things that might ensue. The illustrations are fun and colorful, but feel too haphazard and unfinished in a childish way.
