Families who loved Bunny Day: Telling Time from Breakfast to Bedtime by Rick Walton often look for books with a similar feel. These 20 recommendations were selected for their similarity in style, theme, and reading level.
Reach for this book when your child starts asking 'Is it time yet?' or when you are trying to establish a more predictable rhythm to your daily routines. Understanding the abstract concept of time can be a source of anxiety for young children: this book turns that mystery into a playful, predictable series of family events. By following a family of bunnies from their 7:00 AM wake-up call to their 6:00 PM bedtime, children see how the clock dictates the flow of a happy, busy day. While the primary goal is teaching how to read a clock, the heart of the story lies in the warm, humorous interactions between the bunny siblings and their parents. It is an ideal choice for preschoolers and early elementary students who are transitioning into 'big kid' responsibilities like getting dressed or helping with chores. The rhyming text and detailed illustrations provide a comforting, low-pressure environment for practicing a challenging new math skill.
