In this sequel to the Caldecott-winning Knuffle Bunny, Trixie and her daddy return in a new Knuffle Bunny adventure. This time Trixie brings Knuffle Bunny to her preschool show-and-tell, only to discover that Sonja, another student in her class, has the same bunny. After much arguing and fussing, their teacher takes the bunnies away, which results in a 2 a.m. swapping arrangement.
Mo Willems's appealing illustrations, set against the amazing photographic backdrop of New York City, make for a pleasurable reading and viewing experience. I actually enjoyed this sequel more than the original. Kids also will relate to the feelings Trixie experiences, from not having her bunny be as unique as she first believes to her anxiety when she realizes she has the wrong bunny.
