Bookroo's summary

Little Bunny is fed up with Mommy's habits—sleeping late, talking too much, and watching silly shows. His frustration peaks when she gets mad over spilled bubbles. Determined to escape, he plans to run away. But as he contemplates leaving, he must decide if he truly wants to leave Mommy behind forever. This heartfelt tale captures the essence of childhood emotions and the bond between a child and parent, leaving readers to wonder if Little Bunny will choose adventure or the comfort of home.

From the publisher

The creator of last year’s sleeper success THE SNOW DAY returns with another pitch-perfect story of real childhood experience – what happens when you get MAD AT MOMMY.

Little Bunny is VERY MAD at his mommy.

She sleeps too late.

She talks too much.

She watches her silly shows instead of cartoons.

And she gets mad for no reason – just a few little bubbles on the floor.

The only thing left to do is run away. But does he really want to leave Mommy behind forever?

With the charming illustrations and spot-on understanding of young children’s thinking that distinguished THE SNOW DAY and EMILY’S BALLOON, Komako Sakai brings us a REALLY ANGRY – and ultimately sweet – new story.
