wonderful illustrations

This is a favorite of mine, because of the wonderful illustrations of the different homes the animals live in. I've read it often to my two kids, now ages 2 and 5. I love seeing inside the intricately drawn households of the zebra family, the hedgehog family, etc. The pictures capture a lot of fun between the various animal playmates, and seem to fill in the story above and beyond the text: an elephant giving her rabbit friend a showerbath, a spirited game of hide and seek, and the wonderful treehouse draped in colorful cloths. I think except for the illustrations in Wild Child, I've never seen illustrations I like as much as those in this book. The story is warm and nurturing to the extreme--sometimes I wish Daisy were stronger and took things more into her own hands (mom rabbit is the one to come up with a plan)...but it does send a message that families can find solutions to problems, and it shows good examples of kindness and friendship, too.
