    P.J. Funnybunny doesn't want to be a bunny anymore! In this hilarious story, a young bunny explores life with different animal friends. This bunny-rific tale of self-discovery is now available in a simplified board book perfect for the littlest hands—and with a festive, sparkly cover, it makes the perfect gift to fill any Easter basket.

    P.J. Funnybunny is tired of cooked carrots and his big ears. It would be way more fun to be a bear, a bird, or a pig...right? Read along as P.J. leaves home and tries to determine who he is—and where he belongs. But this bunny might just learn that all he wants to be is...himself!

    This sturdy board book adaptation, with text abridged from the beloved Beginner Book, makes a fun-filled read aloud for babies and toddlers!
    "Sick of being a bunny, P. J. Funnybunny takes off to become a bear. Hibernation gets dull, so he tries being a bird. And so it goes, with beavers, pigs, possums, and skunks—till P. J. realizes that bunnyhood is for him. The short, repeating text is ideal for beginners and the bright, humorous cartoons will get immediate attention."—School Library Journal
