 I love the illustrations in this book and that is about it.  The little bunnies are waiting for the dark of the full moon.  They make invitations, and send them out and then everyone comes to watch lanterns float off.  I didn’t feel the story had any real cohesion or purpose.  
funny relaxing medium-paced

 I would never have guessed this was a book on Yoga.  The fly keeps landing on Mula disrupting her dreams of tumbling and standing on her head.  The fly tells Mula if she does yoga she can accomplish these things.  This story really works.  It was a fun read if a tad long, but the illustrations are so vibrant and colorful that you don’t mind.  You want to keep reading to see what happens next. 
funny lighthearted fast-paced

 I had only seen this comic very randomly.  However, unlike some one shot comics that are gathered into a book and get old, or are just too much of a good thing, this is exactly the opposite.  I want more.  It was just full of great humor that I had to share.  It had everyone at work laughing and going, yep that’s me.  Loved it and I want more. 
slow-paced

 This issue dragged out so long!  We got a brief glimpse of Secret Squirrel in volume 3 but he is almost half the books.  I know eventually the story lines will converge but right now I just find them boring and awkward. 
emotional inspiring

 This book is something special.  I think the dedication/introduction helps bring the story to life so be sure not to miss it. 
adventurous

 I love the illustrations of this book.  The story however, feels like it goes nowhere.  Fox does accomplish his mission of taking a picture of the glowing plant at the bottom of the sea, but there seemed to be so many missed opportunities where Fox could impart a lesson that seemed to be missed. 
lighthearted

 There are many many things in this book I don’t really understand.  Such as the old saying.  Never heard of it.  But I liked this story anyway.  It seems like it’s about hats, but it’s really about being who you are and not to let a “hat” squash your personality.  On a side note, this is a great choice if your library does an edible book festival.  
funny fast-paced

 While I don’t get the whole poop emoji thing, this book is a laugh riot.  Two little mice talk about what type of poo other mice or animals might have.  This is not a learn about animals book, this is have fun saying the wood poo book and it works. 
informative fast-paced

 Great book for beginners or someone with more experience, or just learning how to take their drawings and make them more chibi or Kawaii. 
informative

 Children’s biographies are pretty popular and the market is close to being saturated, but I really liked this look at the beatles.  None of the information is new, but I like how they illustrated the book in the theme of The Yellow Submarine (A Beatles song).  It works well together and creates a pretty successful biography of a big band.
