Review "Those who play roughly with their toys may think twice about this story, and the wryness of Nubbys hopes that fames and riches will solve all his problems is a bonus for older folks reading to younger ones."—Bulletin "Nubbys reminiscences make the bunnys self-important crankiness both funny and relatable."—Publishers Weekly"Both text and pictures are energetic and funny….A very happy ending has the bunny nestled together with his boy (and pup), each one with a new appreciation for the other." —The Horn Book"A worthy tribute to all the beleaguered, beloved toys who serve as constant, comforting companions through childhood." —BookPage Review Quote "Those who play roughly with their toys may think twice about this story, and the wryness of Nubbys hopes that fames and riches will solve all his problems is a bonus for older folks reading to younger ones."-- Bulletin "Nubbys reminiscences make the bunnys self-important crankiness both funny and relatable.
