Berbay has produced a delightful book that retains the distinctly kawaii feel of Jayne's original artworks.... Bunnygirl's message of kindness as a superpower is lovely for little ones to discover. --Books + Publishing This picture book, told in comic book panels was inspired by the creator's love of all things 80s including Hello Kitty, My Little Pony, Rainbow Brite, retro comic books, and Lisa Frank. The result is a kawaii picture book brimming with cuteness, accessible quirk, and a feel-good message of kindness. Bea loves helping friends and wants to be a superhero, but none of the costumes she tries on fit her personality.

This is a perfect intro to reading stories told in sequential pictures and a way for emerging readers to take an active role in following the narrative. And when readers fall in love with Bunnygirl, they won't have to worry because she has another adventure coming soon.
