Description

This upbeat story is about Brooklynn, a little bunny who loves to hop. Brooklynn wears a brace at night, but she is determined to learn how to hop rope in time for the Hippity Hop Games. Armed with hop rope rhymes and a can-do attitude, Brooklynn shows that persistence pays off and can be a lot of fun.

Awards & Endorsements

Midwest Book Review

With its underlying message about the value of perseverance when dealing with a disability, illness or handicap, "Hip, Hop, Hooray for Brooklynn!" is charming, fun, thoroughly 'kid friendly, and unreservedly recommended addition to family, daycare center, preschool, elementary school, and community library picture book collections for children ages 2-6

Little Parachutes

A lovely inspiring story. Children who have been through treatment for clubfoot should recognise something of their own experiences in this book. It provides clarification for their siblings and friends too, who may be curious about the condition. The illustrations show little delicacy and skill, although the colourful comic book style is likely to appeal to young children.

Child Life Mommy

Co-authored by Jill Harold, the parent of a child in treatment for clubfoot, and Betsy Miller, the author of The Parents’ Guide to Clubfoot, this joint project focuses on the whole child (or whole bunny) working toward a positive outcome over time. Whether it’s jumping rope, or wearing a brace, the message of this book is to keep trying.

This story is an example of how the specific speaks to the universal. Though this book has special meaning to children who wear a brace, any child can enjoy this book and appreciate how Brooklynn achieves her goal. Hip, Hop, Hooray for Brooklynn Bunny! is geared toward children two to five years of age.
