It’s Just a Bunnypalooza by Brenda Faatz and Peter Trimarco

Just in time for Easter season, It’s Just A Bunnypalooza, from the award-winning team of Brenda Faatz and Peter Trimarco, hops its way into the hearts of young audiences with a playful tale about the power of imagination and living out loud. A precocious redhead named Lizzy (from the It’s Just So… series and Now What?) is joined by 106 bunnies that breakdance, jump-jive, and toe-tap their way across the pages to remind her to embrace her gifts and be her unique self.

A colony of cottontails breakdance, bebop, and hip hop their way across the pages of It’s Just a Bunnypalooza to teach lovable protagonist Lizzy some new dance moves just in time for the school talent show.

It’s Just a Bunnypalooza is the third book in the It’s Just So… series from the award-winning team of Brenda Faatz and Peter Trimarco. As with all “Lizzy” books, (including the recent, fun-filled romp, Now What?It’s Just a Bunnypalooza springs to life with adventure-in-rhyme, fantastical humor, and playful made-up words that pop into Lizzy’s mind.

When the contagiously enthusiastic Lizzy tells her classmates that she’s learning jump-jivin’ moves from bunnies, the children giggle at her overactive imagination. Feeling embarrassed and self-conscious, Lizzy decides she no longer wants to be laughed at.

Lizzy becomes an avid “non-believer” and ceases any further communication with animals. Naturally, the bunnies organize an intervention. These furry little creatures will not allow Lizzy’s fandango to falter, and they sure don’t want to lose a good friend.

Written with young children ages 4 to 8 in mind, It’s Just a Bunnypalooza provides multiple social-emotional-learning moments with subtle yet effective messaging about living out loud and staying true to yourself.

It’s Just a Bunnypalooza has been praised by Kirkus Reviews as “Infectiously enthusiastic about dance and imagination. The bouncy, vibrant verbs make this an excellent read-aloud tale … full-color, whimsical illustrations nicely capture the story’s kinetic joy.”

It’s Just a Bunnypalooza is available on Amazon and your favorite bookseller.
