I have always lost this book as a child. The language of this book really makes the book fun, even as an adult. The word are repetitive and they flow easily together. The words that are repeated are, "Little Rabbit Foo Foo riding through the forest, scooping up ...and bopping them on the head." The Rabbit keeps scooping up different animals and hitting them on the head. When you read it as a more song-type book, the children get involved even more. The pictures also help to enhance the story because it is so comical The pictures seem to be more cartoon-like and you see the animals who got hit on the head hurting and angry as well as having a bump n their head. The message of this story is to treat others nicely and that if someone gives show more you a second chance you should gladly take it. show less
You just have to love how in this version of the classic "Little Bunny Foo Foo" this rabbit is riding a motercycle. It's a very entertaining book and a fun read aloud.
This was my son's favorite and the first book he learned to read. This book will always hold a special place in my heart.

Michael Rosen started writing as a teenager, when his mother needed some poems for Radio programs she was making. While at college, he wrote a play which was staged at the Royal Court theatre in London. Rosen's first book was published in 1974, and he is one of Britain's leading children's poets. Michael Rosen launched the National Year of show more Literacy project, which encouraged children to help produce an Anthology to be used during the Literacy Hour in primary schools. Children ages 4-11 were invited to submit poems and illustrations featuring their favorite tree. Rosen also led the final judging sessions to decide which submissions would be included.
