So Many Bunnies: A Bedtime ABC and Counting Book
By Rick Walton
The Story
Old Mother Rabbit has twenty-six babies, one for every letter from Abel to Zed, and she tucks them into bed one by one through her rambling house and garden.
Why It's Special
For the kid who wants one more bedtime book before lights-out, this one turns counting and the alphabet into the sleepiest, cuddliest errand a mother rabbit ever ran.
- Big idea: Bedtime itself can be an adventure — and there's always room for one more goodnight kiss, even with twenty-six children to tuck in.
- Vibes: Cozy, lulling, gently repetitive — a wind-down book through and through.
Perfect For Kids Who
- are working on letters and counting to twenty-six
- respond well to a predictable bedtime structure
- love rhyming, singsong text
- enjoy spotting each bunny by name
