It's Not Easy Being a Bunny: An Early Reader Book for Kids Hardcover - 1983

by Marilyn Sadler; Roger Bollen (Illustrator)

Tired of being a bunny, P.J. Funnybunny decides to become a bear. But hibernating is so dull, he thinks he'd rather be a bird, or a pig . . . or a possum. . . . And so it goes, until P.J. learns that bunnyhood is not so bad after all. Full color.


From the publisher

P.J. Funnybunny doesn't want to be a bunny anymore! In this hilarious Beginner Book, a young bunny explores life with different animal friends. And don't miss the charming follow-up, It's Better Being a Bunny, available now! This is a perfect gift for Easter or celebrating bunnies all year round.

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! Originally created by Dr. Seuss himself, Beginner Books are fun, funny, and easy to read. These unjacketed hardcover early readers encourage children to read all on their own, using simple words and illustrations. Smaller than the classic large format Seuss picture books like The Lorax and Oh, The Places You'll Go!, these portable packages are perfect for practicing readers ages 3-7, and lucky parents too!

From the jacket flap

Illus. in full color. "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.
