PreS-Gr 1—Betty Bunny develops a lying problem. First she lies about a broken lamp and then changes her story as she thinks it will benefit her. Betty's siblings and mom jump in to help Betty see the importance of telling the truth. This is a family affair, and everyone gets involved, with each character's unique personality popping out. Betty does learn her lesson but with a twist that will leave readers cheering. Narrator Katherine Kellgren does a nice job capturing Betty's emotions and the sometimes chaotic feel of family life. Her pacing allows listeners time to enjoy the accompanying illustrations without feeling rushed. Readers can choose to follow along with or without page turns signals; the recording uses the sound of a page turning, which is less intrusive than the loud beep found with some read-along titles.
VERDICT This latest Betty Bunny title is a winner for young listeners.
