Emo the Bunny was a sad bunny. He preferred gloomy days, walks over a cliff and misery of any sort. One day he saw something very unusual. Normally he'd take a nap and try to forget about it, but for some reason he took an interest.
Ducks, bunnies, chickens, squirrels, geese, bears, cows, robins and The Easter Bunny all play a part in the disturbing events which show that woodland creatures aren't always as cute, fuzzy and innocent as they lead us to believe!
Caution: This story is not for normal children. If you have any intention of raising a well adjusted child, this is not the right tale for you.

My Review:
What a truly demented story tale! I fell in love with this book from the first
time I read the title. It is quirky and
yes twisted.
Emo the bunny is misunderstood and very…well very emo. He
accidentally finds himself mixed up with some very bad ducks and an evil Easter
Bunny.
This story is sooo funny!
Emo is a charming, if unwilling hero.
I love how the author has him interacting with the other
characters. Plus the other characters
are entertaining in their own right.
While the story does portray the Easter Bunny in a very bad
light and the humor is a tad dark, there isn’t gore or anything like that in
it. I wouldn’t recommend it for younger
children, but midgrade and up will definitely get a kick out of this one. I had previously had the fun of reading
Zachary Zombie and the Lost Boy. The
humor and style of both books are on the same level and I would gladly like to
get my hands on some of the authors other works to see if they are equally as
amusing.

DeleteWhat a strange book. I can't imagine reading it to my kids, but could see myself enjoying it. Like Juliet, I'm intrigued about the target audience.

Again I would think teen and up. I would let my older kids read it but maybe not my younger ones.
DeleteThanks again for stopping by!
Sounds like an off-the-wall tale, one a lot of people would find truly fun to read.
ReplyDeleteIt was fun! Thanks for stopping by!
DeleteSounds like it might be the perfect book for my son, I have to fight with him to practice reading.

Guess it depends on his age group. But I did find it funny and I think my teens would enjoy it.
DeleteJeremy, things have a way of turning up years later...

DeleteHah! I was totally not expecting this when I clicked A-To-Zs link - what a fantastic review of a very unique-appealing book.
ReplyDeleteIt kinda reminds me of some of Raold Dahl's stuff, just from the overview.
It also reminds me of The Book Of Bunny Suicides.
Either way, I've always been able to appreciate dark humor, and I'm still a kid at heart - I may end up checking this out.
Thanks for sharing, Aimee!
Glad you enjoyed the review! The author has a bunch of other short stories that have the same twisted humor so if you get a chance you might want to check some of them out too!
DeleteAs for me I'm now going to check out The Book of Bunny Suicides!
Thanks for visiting!
