It's a special day at 3 Maple Street. It's Little Rabbit's birthday! His mother makes him his favorite breakfast. His sister has drawn him a picture. And, best of all, he's having a birthday party! His friends are invited, his father is decorating, and his mother is baking a cake. But that's not the only thing going on at 3 Maple Street today. The Cat family is moving in upstairs ... the Fox family is having a new baby ... Mr. Owl is trying to sleep ... there's so much happening inside (and outside) this lively building, it's hard to keep track! <p/>This multilayered picture book from international award-winning Marianne Dubuc allows readers to peer into the homes of all the charming animal families in the building on every spread. Though there is one main story, captured in the text, there are multitudes of other stories-within-the-story, told in visual narratives. Dubuc's winsome one-of-a-kind illustrations include heaps of clever details for children to pore over, promising something new to discover with every look and encouraging visual literacy in readers and prereaders. There are terrific social studies connections here on the concepts of community, inclusiveness and belonging.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>... this Richard Scarry-esque book, with its expressive and appealingly drawn animal characters, begs to be read multiple times.--<i><b>Horn Book, starred review</b></i><br><br>... a sweet story about friendship and inclusion that can only add another interactive level to story time.--<i><b>CM Magazine</b></i><br><br>Dubuc's delightful domestic dramas will entertain children and adults alike.--<i><b>Kirkus Reviews</b></i><br><br>The reward is in entering the book again and again.--<i><b>School Library Journal, starred review</b></i><br><br>This book will prompt contented rereads and conversations about neighbors, sharing, and community.--<i><b>Publishers Weekly, starred review</b></i><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Marianne Dubuc is an award-winning author and illustrator of many books for children, including The Bus Ride, Lucy and Company and Mr. Postmouse's Rounds.
