Review
This is a tale about a little girl and her soft, stuffed bunny Bubbit. Grandma Nonni made Bubbit when the little girl was tiny and Bubbit has been her best friend ever since. When a new baby brother arrives , the little girl decides that she and Nonni must make him a stuffed best friend and the project is underway. Nonni is an excellent seamstress and the little girl, listening to Bubbit's suggestions, and making use of her very own sewing box, helps her Grandma to choose what the little animal should be (an elephant) and that it should be yellow. The illustrations are busy, colorful and makes one want to take up scissors, fabric and thread and begin a project of one's own. There is a lot of text for a picture book and the text is not particularly conducive to prompting kids to try to read this choice themselves, as the font is quite small and black. However, this is still a good choice for little ones expecting siblings and children interested in crafts such as sewing and the like.
Overall Book Score: very good
