  | Full Text Reviews: School Library Journal - 02/01/2013 K-Gr 1—When each family member is too busy to play ball, Betty's unguided energy leads to a broken vase and lamp. Her siblings offer advice, like hiding under the rug. Instead Betty blames each mishap on the tooth fairy and a very heavy bag of baby teeth. When she discovers that her confession makes her mother proud, the rabbit begins to admit to even imaginary offenses, like bank robbery. When she finally understands it's the truth that's valued, she then needs to learn tact since her first truth is to inform Daddy Bunny that he stinks after working out at the gym. The exuberant youngster bounces across pages masterfully detailed in pencil, ink, watercolor, and gouache. This third Betty Bunny book continues to delight. A single caution: brother Bill warns, "Mom is going to kill you"; in some households, that is not acceptable language.—Gay Lynn Van Vleck, Henrico County Library, Glen Allen, VA - Copyright 2013 Publishers Weekly, Library Journal and/or School Library Journal used with permission.
