Fenske delivers another subtly humorous easy reader in this speed-reading challenge.
A cheeky bunny with pink ears, nose, tongue, and feet challenges the reader to a race - to the end of the book! With quick, easy rhymes, the bunny challenges, complains, and even (whisper) cheats a little, but ultimately the reader wins! The bunny decides to challenge an easier foe - a snail - and the book ends with a delightful giggle.
Set against white, aquamarine, and pastel yellow backgrounds, the cartoon bunny grimaces, races, and makes jokes as readers race through the "story." It's silly metafiction that will bring a giggle and a pleased sense of success at the end of the story.
The text is bold and easy to follow, even when divided into simple comic panels. It's a step above beginner, a good level for readers who can both read simple words and follow a more subtle storyline.
Verdict: Another fun book from Jonathan Fenske, this is a great addition to any easy reader section and sure to win over fans of Fenske's nut books and other popular authors like Ethan Long and Jeff Mack.
