Summary

Encourage creativity with this wildly entertaining picture book mash-up from the minds of Jon Scieszka and Mac Barnett.

Alex has been given a saccharine, sappy, silly-sweet picture book about Birthday Bunny that his grandma found at a garage sale. Alex isnâÈçt interestedâÈ'until he decides to make the book something heâÈçd actually like to read. So he takes out his pencil, sharpens his creativity, and totally transforms the story!

Birthday Bunny becomes Battle Bunny, and the rabbitâÈçs innocent journey through the forest morphs into a supersecret mission to unleash an evil planâÈ'a plan that only Alex can stop.

Featuring layered, original artwork that emphasizes AlexâÈçs additions, this dynamic exploration of creative storytelling is sure to engage and inspire.

Media reviews

* "This deliciously subversive piece of metafiction skewers--with sharp wit and a sharper pencil--the earnest, purposeful literature so popular in the middle of the last century."
