This Week's Question:

What were some of your favorite picture books as a kid? if you have kids, what are your favorite to read to them?

Answer 

I have so many favorite childrens books. Yet I have one that holds the spot of #1

The Runaway Bunny
Margaret Wise Brown & Clement Hurd

A little bunny keeps runningaway from his mother in an imaginative and imaginary game of verbal hide-and-seek; children will be profoundly comforted by this lovingly steadfast mother who finds her child every time.

The Runaway Bunny, first published in 1942 and never out of print, has indeed become a classic. Generations of readers have fallen in love with the gentle magic of its reassuring words and loving pictures.

I have fond memories of The Runaway Bunny. My mother used to read it to us over and over.  I've even read this one to both of my kids. 

What's your favorite?

  1. I think I might have read Runaway Bunny but I'm not entirely sure-- but this story sounds absolutely adorable and not just for the bunnies. ^.^ Love the pick! :)

  7. I've never read Runaway Bunny, but it sounds like such a sweet story. And reassuring for little ones - I think that's a huge fear when you're little - getting lost and your mom/dad not finding you. Great pick!

    Thank for stopping by!

  11. The illustrations in "Runaway Bunny" are some of my favorites in all of Children's Literature.

    Then again, I'm kind of predisposed to bunnies. ;)

    Here's my FF. Swing by if you feel so inclined!:
