Photographs by
Chuck Kennedy.
Despite Mama's urging to get ready for school, Ready Rabbit gets distracted by his imaginative play, including stints as a pirate, astronaut, superhero, and Wild West stagecoach driver. The photographic illustrations are an odd but mildly amusing juxtaposition of Ready Rabbit (a sock puppet) and incongruous dollhouse furniture set against white pages. Mama's off-panel dialogue keeps Ready Rabbit center stage.
