A great lesson about empowerment, in the guise of a sweet story about bunnies.  Donny(bunny) and Michelle go to summer camp and on the last day they learn that there will be a show.  Of course they want to participate but have no idea what to do.  Mom tells the kids that no matter what they do, they will do it well if they practice, and prepare.The brother and sister do just that and put on a show with a song about friendship which they preformed perfectly for the audience.The lessons here is of course practice makes perfect, and that you can do anything if you're willing to put in the time to do it right.  It's also about the support of two loving parents, and how siblings can be friends, and help each other succeed.The illustrations are bright and happy and wonderfully drawn.  There's something about them that really stands out, making the pleasurable to look at.  Maybe it's because, as the authors say, they were drawn with love because they really do make you feel good to look at them.  Illustrations are what makes or breaks a children's book, and these authors do an outstanding job.I'd feel confident about reading this book to a child.  It's bright and happy and has a great message.
