Customer Reviews

What a treasure!

My sister-in-law and I bought this book for our 3-year old neice who loves Max and Ruby. She had a huge birthday party and we were shocked to find out that no one else got her this book. In fact, no one else had ever even seen it. Our neice thought this was her best gift by far and carries this book around with her while she's at home and asks to have it read to her constantly.

One my kid's favorites!

Another great book by Rosemary Wells. This book is one of my kid's favorites!

Another big hit

My children (3boys and 1 girl) LOVE Max and Ruby books. This was another big hit with them. I highly recommend the books.

Just gorgeous!

My 3 yr old and 4 year old took instantly to this book --especially Max's iconoclastic take on how to play beauty shop "his way" and the blonde bombshell wig. Grandma always makes a wise choice at the end of these stories, but the real fun is in the illustrations, the expressions on the bunnies' faces, and Rosemary Wells' understated sense of humor. The whole series is fun for the kids and even the adults who have to read the story to them nightly. Both kids are enchanted and now playing "beauty shop" is a standard pastime for them. If you like this one, you'll also enjoy Bunny Party and Bunny Money.
