This book takes a fun twist on the Fibonacci problem and turns it into a fun story for kids. The book is made for kids with a grown up sense of humor in mind. I believe this would be a fun book to use in the classroom to get students to problem-solve and think outside the box. (

Critique:
It is a good fantasy book for children to know the life of rabbits. Rabbits calculated dates and arranged schedules every month. In the process, the quantities of rabbits rose rapidly, which shows readers the amazing reproduction of rabbits. What makes it funny is that in the last month, "rabbits" pop up when readers turn to the page.
Age appropriate:
primary school students (

This book is a good introduction to the calendar, life planning and life issues (to rabbits). This book introduces other ways of reading; each of page has pictures and some introduce about daily life.

I think this book is an information book because of it introduce calendar, the growth of rabbits. It also introduces how to make the sweater. (

This book is about the year in the life of a rabbit. This book shows how everyone, including rabbits go through struggles. This book is an interactive book for young children.

Summary: This book is set up with lots of pictures and very few words. It goes month by month showing how the rabbit population grows and grows.
Genre: Imaginative/ Informative
Medium:
Age Appropriateness:
Use in a classroom: This book would be great to use with students who are learning multiplication. They can see patterns in the bunny growth and come up with their own equation possibly. For younger kids, this book is funny and enjoyable to look at.
