PS
A bunny demonstrates a ninja's essential qualities as described in the rule book How to Be a Super Awesome Ninja, beginning with "always work alone." When a bear threatens the little ninja, an effective bear's-eye-view illustration reveals that this rabbit isn't alone: non-ninja bunny friends have their pal's back. The text is an effectively paced recitation of the rules, and nimble illustrations inject slapstick humor.
