Description
The four zany Rescue Rabbits invite you to race along with them as they save their fellow animal friends both big and small. From limping elephants to seasick kangaroos, it seems there is no problem they can't handle. But when the Rescue Rabbits meet a rhino prince with a very unique problem, they will have to put their heads together (in a Rescue Rabbits huddle, of course!) and find a special solution in order to save the day. And that's just what they will do, because they are...THE RESCUE RABBITS!
Reviews / Votes
"With a comic focus on the bunnies' branded goods, including their rabbit-shaped HQ, Garrigue's (Princess Kevin) digital cartooning efficiently builds tension surrounding this mother of all rescue missions (which involves Prince Rex's mother in a key role), while trotting out such inventions as Rescue Rabbits Monogrammed Hankies and the Rescue Rabbits Super-Chopper 9000. Readers will see in these pages a gentle spoof of cartoons and blockbusters that include endless product tie-ins, but the story also offers an amusing tribute to competency-themed pretend play." -Publishers Weekly"This picture book, containing enormous kid appeal through jungle animals, jet skis, a helicopter, an ambulance, and high-tech tracking devices, is an excellent spur for imaginative search-and-rescue play...Zany fun, with a solid emphasis on caring for others." -Booklist
