Knuffle Bunny Too: A Case of Mistaken Identity by Mo Willems
Pre-K student Trixie, is on her way to school with her dad and she is very excited. She is about to show her special bunny, Knuffle Bunny to her classmates. At school, Trixie notices Sonja (a classmate) has a bunny just like hers and she is not too happy about it. The girls start to argue and the teacher takes both bunnies away. The teacher returns the bunnies to the girls and they both leave home. In the middle of the night, Trixie realizes the bunny is not hers and wants her bunny back now. Dad was about to call Sonja's parents, when the phone rings. Sonja's dad was on the other end wanting to exchange the bunnies. They meet a couple of blocks down and Trixie and Sonja realize they have a lot in common. They become best friends. This is a cute story on the love a child has for their special, stuffed animal. I would recommend this story to lower grade students or reluctant readers. The combination of pictures and illustrations make the story interesting and believable.
