No previewing is necessary. This is a cold-read book. However, parents might want to practice making a twitchy nose sound or a soft hopping motion to accompany the text. A child pointing at a rabbit in a park or asking to touch a neighbor's pet with too much enthusiasm.
For an infant, this is a tactile and visual object to bat at and track. For a toddler, it is a vocabulary builder where they can identify body parts (nose, ears) on the bunny and then on themselves. A three-year-old may use it as a guide for how to behave gently around animals.
Unlike many bunny books that rely on whimsy or personification, this DK title uses realistic photography and a die-cut shape to create a literal representation of the animal, making it a true bridge to nature.
