This book should be read by everyone who loved reading as a young child, and any parents who love reading to their children today. Nostalgic at the core, the interpretations of children's picture books throughout the ages is a delight.

Thoroughly enjoyed this one. I was immediately seized by the cover design and wasn't disappointed. Too often children's picture books are overlooked because of their young audience, but in Fierce Bad Rabbits, Clare Pollard analyses them with the respect and tenderness deserving of the tales that shape us.
@LibrarianRyan have you seen this book? It was well-reviewed in The Times on Saturday. The book is subtitled ‘The Tales Behind Children‘s Picture Books‘. I think it may be UK-focused rather than US, but I couldn‘t not bring it to your attention....
I don‘t know who else is doing your children‘s book challenge but they may like it too....
