This week’s New York Times Book Review had a lovely review of Mo Willems’ latest in the Knuffle Bunny series. I haven’t been keeping up with Mo’s blog lately, so had no idea there was a third book until I stumbled upon it at a bookstore a few weeks ago. It was such a great book I wished my kids were still little so I could buy it for them.
I do read Knuffle Bunny each year to my class, but haven’t read them the second book yet. I’m not sure that I will read them the third. Just as the first book is for the little ones like Trixie was back then, I think this one is for elementary school kids, like Trixie is now. (Did you know that Trixie is Mo’s daughter? I’m pretty sure there is – or was – a real Knuffle Bunny.)
I bought this book a few weeks ago. It is a wonderful book. I love Mo Willems.
I checked out his blog and he’s got three Elephant and Piggie books coming out in 2011. I can’t wait!
It made me cry.
