Customer Reviews

These are some of our favorites

Tippy tippy hide and Muncha muncha muncha have become some of our favorite bedtime stories for our three little girls. We checked it out at the library at first and had so much fun with them that we couldn't resist purchasing them. They are just cute funny stories of farmer verses bunnies. Adorable!!

Brings a smile to your face.

If you've ever had a garden and been frustrated with rabbits, this is the story for you! It's a cute story and fun for all ages. You're never too old for a good picture book!

Laugh aloud illustrations and text

My three year old loves this book, especially when the bunnies leave bunny droppings on Mr.McGreely's pillow. She loves to "read" it aloud to herself after we put her to bed, and it's so funny to hear her over the baby monitor saying "Some bunnies been in my house!" We haven't read Candace Fleming's first book "Muncha!Muncha!Muncha!" but I'm eager to read the prequel. The end of the story was a little confusing for my daughter, because it ends in sounds and pictures, with no written conclusion (in trying to keep the bunnies out, Mr.McGreely ends up locking himself into the house and he can't get out in the spring), so I used to have to explain the ending each time to my daughter. The rest of the story is great however and is sure to keep your child riveted.
