Sunny the Bunny: Goes to Camp by Jace Higgins and Paige Bekish is a sweet, little children's book!
The illustrations are absoultely adorable! The cover, the pictures, ugh! All of it is just so sweet and cartoon-y! I love one of the first pages with little ballerina bunnies! It's so adorable!
Onto the story itself:
Sunny is a cute bunny who likes to read and bake. Her Mom signed her up for summer camp, which she isn't too happy about. When she gets there, even though it's super exciting she still wants to go home. Slowly, Sunny the Bunny learns to love camp.
I think this is a great book to introduce to kids who are going to camp for the first time! It shows all the fun a kid can have at camp - games, campfires, sports and friendships! It's an absolutely cute and adorable way to bring this subject up. As someone who used to work in camps and with camps, I think this would be excellent for parents to read to first time campers and for counsellors to read to their young campers!
Three out of five stars!
Thank you to NetGalley and Greenleaf Book Group for providing me a free copy of this book in exchange of an honest review.
Sunny the Bunny: Goes to Camp is a sweet picture book about a nervous little bunny who goes away for her first week of sleep-away camp. Before she goes she is all anxious and makes herself queasy. But, once she arrives at camp she starts to have fun.
This is a good story about overcoming your fears and trying new things. Plus the illustrations are adorable!
Omg this is a cute story of Sunny the Bunny who goes to camp with the other animals. My kids & I enjoyed this so much. We love the bright colors and the rhyming words. In a way it’s preparing me for when the day comes, my kids will be off to camp. Thanks to Greenleaf Book Group Press and NetGalley for an ebook ARC. This is my honest review.
DELIGHTFUL! And a PERFECT book for going to camp, sleepaway camp or day camp, even a new childcare daycare place!
This is a wonderful story about a bunny going away to camp facing fear of leaving home for an overnight stay away from mom and dad for the first time. The text is told in charming rhyme, and it would be so incredibly easy to make a song of it and continue the fun for the child! It could also be a rap, haha!
I didn't expect to be so entertained by this book. I had a child that clung to me like a baby koala at every new foray into the world. How I wish I'd had this book then to make something fun of the discomfort and show how the feelings change with the adventures had! I love how this book progresses from fear to some curiosity to complete child adventurous fun easily all in the span of a few pages. The storyline is smooth, no hard turns, and you can feel the sing-song nature of it, allowing a child to memorize some or many of the words as a personal mantra or personal anthem, singing a new way of feeling and being, bold and brave and the rewards that come.
"Now we are zip-lining
over the trees.
My fluff is all messy
because of the breeze."
Haha! How cute is this, messy fluff?! I love it.
Fantastic book! Highly recommended for many ages, from toddler on up, to help with needing to be away from home for hours or days. Even older kids can use this type of help once in a while. Beautiful find!
This is a good little read, with nice illustrations. It is written well and is definitely a book that lots of little ones will adore and want to return to, time and again. The rhymes are wonderful and flow nicely, really giving the book a good feel. It also has a great lesson about exploring and getting away from home, to a safe place, being a great adventure.
Thank you for the opportunity to read and review this title.
The illustrations are simple, yet sweet. I know my bunny loving daughter will enjoy this one!
Thanks to NetGalley and Greenleaf Book Group for providing an advanced copy of this picture book in exchange for an honest review.
The illustrations are cute and fairly simplistic. It's a great little story for kids going off to summer camp for the first time, showing them that being away from home is always kind of scary but it can be fun.
Bunny is nervous about going to sleepaway camp. There are fears associated with trying new things, being away from home, not making friends, and trying new things. Bunny quickly learns that by embracing camp culture, you will fit in, learn new things, and often find fun and success.
This was SUPER cute and perfect if your little one is anxious or scared about going away to camp. There are tons of positive messages throughout including wearing your seatbelt, personal hygiene, healthy snacks, staying active through sports and exercise.
As a camper myself, this story resonated with me and would definitely be a great message for any future campers.
This is a cute book about a bunny going to camp and the worries she feels in going and staying away from home and worrying about making new friends while there too.
The illustrations where so cute a brought the story to life as the animals go through certain camp activities a lovely book for kids to learn from about camp and what to expect.
Many thanks to the publishers for allowing me to review this book for them!
Sunny is sent off to camp but feels very nervous about it at first. Along the way Sunny realizes how much fun camp can be.
This is a great book for children who are going off to camp for the first time or is having some anxieties about new experiences. It's a great resource for learning rhyming words or poems as well.

This book is so cute and heart-warming. Sunny the Bunny is afraid of new things and doesn't want to go to camp.
I had a bunny once. His name was Cesare and he was so shy.. I imagine Sunny just like him, shy and insecure and afraid of new things.
I'm sure little readers will love this book! And they will learn to be fearless because everything new hide fun and adventure.
When I was a kid, I was scared when I went to camp. I, of course, ended up having a great time. This book is the perfect book to read to kids who have that same fear- it shows how much fun camp can be! From an adult perspective, I really enjoyed the flow of the book. Sunny the bunny goes to camp is a book that I must read to the kids in my life.
Sunny the Bunny is a cute little book about feelings of going off to camp and the friends they make and things they do.
Sunny the Bunny is an adorable character . In this short story Sunny goes to camp .It is a story about Sunny and how at first Sunny is a bit nervous to go to camp and the book talks about how Sunny gets on the bus and how Sunny wants to be with her mom and dad, but instead is at camp. However, Sunny describes the day at camp and has a realization it isn't so bad. This is a cute read and I loved the rhyming and flow of it. It would be great to give as a gift to a young child learning to read. Thank you!
Thank you Greenleaf Book Group & NetGalley for the a chance to review this book.
Sunny the Bunny is absolutely adorable. It’s about a bunny who goes to camp. Sunny the Bunny does have hesitations and worries, but they end up enjoying trying the new things at camp.
The Yoga class was probably my favorite illustration. I enjoyed being able to see the different activities Sunny got to do, and how they interacted with their new friends.
I liked the rhyme scheme and the illustrations a lot. It was a very cute book. I truly did not find anything wrong with the book at all. It’s one of the books I would probably end up reading four times in a row before bedtime and not get tired of it.
