Críticas:

'Ably translated into English from Swedish children's author, Ulf Nilsson, and beautifully enhanced by one of Europe's best-loved illustrators, Eva Eriksson, "Little Sister Rabbit And The Fox" is an utterly charmingly illustrated tale of bravery and trusting one's instincts. Very highly recommended and certain to be an enduringly popular addition to family, preschool, elementary school, and community library picture book collections for children ages 3 to 6. Also highly recommended for this same age group is Ulf Nilsson and Eva Eriksson's "Little Sister Rabbit Gets Lost".' -- Midwest Book Review, March 2017 'The lovely illustrations show the desperation of her pursuer who does end up getting a meal from a surprising source and the concern of her family once she arrives home, slightly injured and a little wiser. Readers will hope she will be a little more cautious or pay attention to her instincts next time' -- Goodreads 'The tone of the text is perfectly pitched for little ones. [...] Though Little Sister Rabbit and the Fox is not explicitly about 'stranger danger', I felt the book offers children gentle, age-appropriate wisdom about how to keep yourself safe. Without needing to go into real-life dangers, which would be too much for children, the story clearly teaches the importance of trusting your own instincts, and acting on them. As a parent, I value the wisdom the book offers. Children need not be aware of this parental perspective. They will simply enjoy this book as a warm-hearted story of courage and adventure.' -- Armadillo 'Little Sister Rabbit Gets Lost and Little Sister Rabbit and the Fox really appealed to my grandchild's sense of humour. We both giggled at the wonderful illustrations and thoroughly enjoyed the stories.' -- Kindling 'With just enough tension to keep listeners engaged, this picture book has a full story arc, and who can't appreciate a happy ending for all?' -- School Library Journal 'The books are short, with gentle illustrations that include interesting details. [...] The books might be good with a 'stranger danger' type unit.' -- School Library Connection
