What's This Book About

Publisher Summary

Big Rabbit has a mood. A bad mood. A mood with attitude. A big, disgusting mood that won’t leave him alone. What’s a rabbit to do? He tries watching TV, but the bad mood is on every channel. He tries making a salad, but the bad mood is un-ignorable, lying on his sofa, eating chips and wiping his boogers on the rug. Whatever will make it go away? The unusual portrayal of a bad mood as a creature that can’t be banished will make kids giggle. Combined with a silly sense of humor and a very real sense of what it’s like to want to shake off a grumpy feeling, this book will resonate with readers of every mood.

    Kirkus
    Critic
    Full review

    "Durand’s simple, quirky images are at their best depicting the bad mood’s antics, which they do with gusto. Great concept, but in practice somewhat strange, and the adult sensibility could be alienating."

    Publisher's Weekly
    Critic

    "While Durand’s illustrations of Big Rabbit’s attempts to get rid of a bad mood will have readers giggling, the resolution of the conflict is disappointing."
