Dumb Bunnies books reading levels (Dav Pilkey)

Dav Pilkey originally wrote this series under another name (Sue Denim), but now he wants all the credit for the smiles and laughter that's generated by this goofy series that features some pretty dumb bunnies.

Dumb Bunnies
features colorful artwork that appeals to a broad audience. Everyone from preschool on up. Assuming that 'everyone' has a serious silly streak. Opinions vary, but a lot of readers will tell you that Dav didn't hit his stride until book #2.

Enjoy. These are some motivating books that can get even the busiest child to slow down and read.


Volume 1

Like the 3 Bears, only dumber. The DUMB BUNNIES will appeal to young children who love off-beat, whacky humor. Like baby Bunny who pours his 'just right' porridge in his pants.

Volume 2

The DUMB BUNNIES' EASTER is actually much funnier than the first volume. It takes more of a Amelia Bedelia turn with mom 'stuffing the turkey' by sinking it through a basketball hoop. Very good ratings.

What can I say. The Bunnies let all the animals out of their cages when they mistake a butterfly for an escaped lion.
