Rabbits make waves in Sunny Bay

Sunny Bay’s beach day is upended when a boatload of rabbits sweeps through, leaving a trail of seaside mishaps—from a toppled sandcastle to sails whisked away. The rhyming text carries the rabbits’ antics onward toward an airport and an unexpected cockpit dash, while the description highlights colorful visual gags and details. Friendship and mischief are signaled in the subtitle, alongside the book’s high-seas adventure framing. The verse and comic action are presented as elements for reading aloud, with the illustrations adding another layer of visual play.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Toddlers, preschoolers, and kindergarteners, as indicated in the title.
  • Families and caregivers seeking a rhyming picture-book read-aloud.
  • Young children who enjoy rabbits, seaside adventures, and comic mishaps.

Book overview

"Readers should prepare for a fast-moving adventure when a fluffle of rabbits embarks on a high-seas adventure . . . Harebrained fun that will leave you giggling."--Kirkus Reviews

Bunnies in a boat!
Bunnies in a boat!
Dashing and a-splashing!
Let's hope they stay afloat!

There are bunnies in a boat, and they're causing a maelstrom in Sunny Bay! The Sunny Town creatures are all out to play in the surf and sand when, whoosh, there goes a speedboat full of bunnies. Watch them crash into a sandcastle, whisk the sails off boats, zip their way to the airport, and run for the plane's cockpit . . . oh no! Philip Ardagh's rollicking, rhyming text is a joy to read aloud, while Ben Mantle's colorful visual gags and zany details make this a story kids will be bouncing to read over and over.
