In this enchanting board book, we discover the four seasons with Nicholas the bunny, as he travels from spring to winter. Nicholas says, "In the spring, I chase the butterflies, and the butterflies chase me." The reader sees an adorable little bunny dressed in red overalls, leaping into the air, trying to catch one of the two-dozen beautifully rendered butterflies. The story continues with spring, then summer, and ends in winter. Nicholas lives in a hollow tree, and when winter arrives, the reader sees him curled up snug in his bunny bed dreaming about the spring to come. This endearing book captivates babies with the outstanding images, and simple text, while teaching the four seasons to older children. What sets this book apart is it's extraordinary, detailed pictures. There is much more to learn than the changing seasons like different types of butterflies, frogs and leaves. Written in 1963, I am a Bunny is a classic and one that should be included in every child's library.

Richard McClure Scarry (1919 - 1994) revealed to children the secrets of everyday life. His worlds were easily understood, populated by polite, well-mannered animals with a keen eye for absurd human behavior. Scarry himself bumbled his way through a charmed life of good luck and fortunate circumstance, pretty much doing whatever he liked until the day he died.
First editions of his 19-cent books presently fetch hundreds of dollars. He wrote and illustrated over three hundred major picture books for children, each one dense with slapstick and visual humor. More than three hundred million copies of his work have exchanged hands, some of which were translated into thirty languages. This qualifies him to be the most popular children's book author of all time, and it can be argued there are two types of people: those who grew up reading Richard Scarry, and those who remain perpetually maladjusted to society.
It wasn't until 1959 that his animal characters emerged as real people. Naughty Bunny told the story of a little bunny who constantly tracked mud all over the carpet and kept his room in a state of perpetual disaster, driving his poor mother to tears. Scarry wanted to create a different kind of world for children, one with equal parts humor and pathos.

I am a bunny. My name is Nicholas. I live in a hollow tree. In the spring, Nicholas likes to sniff the flowers, and in the summer, watch the frogs in the pond. In the fall, he watches the animals getting ready for winter, and in winter, watches the snow falling from the sky. This beautifully illustrated, gentle story is one of Golden's most beloved titles.

This is the first book my son would bring to me for repeated readings (starting at about 9 months). The illustrations are stunning, and the vocabulary is perfect for infants/toddlers. I give this book to everyone with children! |

This was my favorite book as a child - my parents still know most of it by heart from reading it so many times! Now, my two year old son loves it too. We had to buy a new copy because mine was so tattered and old. He just loved the colors and the story. He especially loves that the bunny goes to sleep at the end with a blankie - my son loves his blankie. This book is a must have for little ones! |

I purchased this book for my brand new baby nephew. This year will be his first Easter. We had been collecting children's books for him before he was born, but I have recently been looking for books that my brother and I enjoyed from childhood. Luckily this book I Am a Bunny is still in print. The illustrations are vivid and precious. We come from a family of artists and art lovers so we always want the illustrations for the children's books to be wonderful. The pictures in this book bring up strong, warm memories for me and I can't wait to share this book with my nephew. |

This is one of those books that I will save for my grandchildren. All three of my children love this book! My copy has chewed corners, and all kinds of wear-marks, which makes it an even more treasured keepsake. I purchase it now as a gift for friends who have small children. I highly recommend this one! |
