The Itsy Bitsy Bunny
Jeffrey Burton, illus. by Sanja Rescek. S&S/Little Simon, $5.99 (16p) ISBN 978-1-4814-5621-0
The team behind The Itsy Bitsy Snowman returns with another board book riff on “The Itsy Bitsy Spider.” Here, a white rabbit dressed in a pink bow-tie and blue shirt hops along, carrying baskets filled with Easter goodies, when “down fell the baskets/ past his tiny tail.” Burton hews to the rhythms of the original song (“Out came his friends/ to help him on his way”), and the rabbit makes his deliveries with help from a fox, ladybug, and other animals, all rendered in ultra-cozy detail by Rescek. Sugary Easter fun. Ages 2–4. Illustrator’s agency: Bright Agency. (Jan.)
