Summary: A great picture book!
Comment: My Friend Rabbit is a picture book in the truest sense-- it relies on its illustrations rather than its text to tell the story. Understanding a story told through illustrations requires cognitive thinking, more so than absorbing a story passively through the written word alone. Therefore, a picture book requires a more patient, imaginative and helpful reader when it is read to younger children.
It strikes me that those who have criticized this excellent book may need to stop relying on a book's text alone and brush up on their picture-story-telling skills.
The Caldecott Jury has justifiably recognized this book.

Summary: My Friend Rabbit-A Must for all ages
Comment: Eric Rohmann has not only captured one's attention with the story line but with the illustrations as well. The story works as a total response to freindship for children. Adults that I have watched read the book have a very positive response as well. Children cannot put the book down. One reading the book gets very involved and before you realize what has happened the book is over but the message lingers. I have found all of Rohmann's books extremly interesting and worth reading. The illustrations are beyond the everyday children's book. I only hope to visit with him sometime soon and have the books signed.
Thanks Eric for a great contribution to Children's Literature.

Summary: Caldecott-worthy
Comment: This book, as stated previously, is a true (and great!) picture book in every sense of the word. It ignites the children's vivid imaginations--that would otherwise be 'unimaginative' if it spelled every event out to them--by forcing them to ask questions and or tell the reader (us parents) what they think is going on.
Lately books are full of words with minimal pictures, but not this one. Thank you Mr. Rohmann for creating an imaginative book with a wonderful message. Kudos!
