Reading that sparkles

Cover of Bunbun and Bonbon
A review of Bunbun and Bonbon by Jess Keating

Adorable Bunbun looks for a friend and finds the perfect companion in sugary Bonbon. They have a lot in common including their ability to hop, their positive outlook on life and their love of all things fancy. Their adventures include picnics, wearing costumes, eating donuts and super sparkly fun times meeting new friends. There's no limit to the kindness and helpful ways of this vibrant duo and I hope they star in many more books. For now, there are three:

  1. Bunbun and Bonbon:  Fancy Friends  - this is where it all begins.  Bunbun is looking for a friend and finds the sweetest companion around, the purple Bonbon.
  2. Bunbun and Bonbon:  Hoppy Go Lucky - Bunbun and Bonbon lose their luck and go looking for it.  They meet Scout Von Fluffington, a cute fox, and Rosie Stardrop Sparklepants, a rainbow unicorn. 
  3. Bunbun and Bonbon:  Captain Bun and Super Bonbon - featuring the dynamic duo as superheroes saving the day and making a new friend named Silver.

Bunbun and Bonbon are part of the Scholastic graphix "Chapters" series encouraging emergent readers to "get drawn into reading."  The books have easy-to-digest page counts, easy-to-follow storylines and artwork that truly draws the reader in.
