Best Bedtime Book Ever

This book is fantastic -- a delight for children and adults alike. The rhymes are clever and just the right amount "silly" and the illustrations are also delightfully whimsical, fun, funny. A "must give" for all of the kids in your life.

Love it!

Eventhough the illustrations aren't very vivid, my 16 month old loves it. We got it as a gift for his 1st birthday and it's the only book that he will continuously sit through to the end. Now, he will bring it over to me and sit in my lap, waiting to be read to. I'm not sure if it's the rhyming that is used or maybe the soft way I read it, but when I read Cowboy Bunnies that's the only time in the day he will sit still. That, in my opinion, is priceless!

A Perfect Bedtime Story

The illustrations are wonderful and the verses are very catchy. Don't listen to the "recommended age" suggestions - I have been reading this to my son since he was 6 months old (he is now 1), and he loves it! Good for ALL ages!

As Sweet a Bedtime Story as You Will Find

Cowboy Bunnies is written in a gentle, rocking rhyme with musical accompaniment perfectly suited to the romanticized ideal many children have of western life. This song-story is one of the few I never tired of reading or hearing, even though I tape-recorded it to play four times in a row. My daughter learned about cowboy and cowgirl costumes, frontier life, cowboy slang, and musical instruments. The end of the story puts cowboy bunnies to bed as the music slows from gently romping to a sleepy lullaby. I consider this book a masterpiece for children ages 2 to 6.

My two-year-old loved this book!

We will definitely be purchasing this one...it was a big hit at our house! Adorable little bunnies rhyming their way through their day.
