"The past week was a good one for picture books about rabbits. Gay or straight." Daily Mail
"Above all, this is a sweet and funny book about of tolerance, friendship, and the one message even our youngest kids can grasp perhaps more easily than perhaps any other: Love is love. I know my own kids would love getting this for Easter." - Cool Mom Picks
"This cute, funny, and inclusive picture book has a positive message about celebrating who you are and loving whom you want." - Common Sense Media
"It's unbelievably adorable." --Scary Mommy
"Good for a chuckle for adults who support LGBTQ rights." -Kirkus Reviews
"A joy... Ignore the grumbling about Oliver turning the bunny America deserves into a metaphor for partisan politics, because the book is a 40-page triumph." -Esquire
"An affirming book for children that goes beyond the adults-only type of parody titles that have gained popularity in recent years." --School Library Journal
"A work of political satire that is also a great children's book." -Anita Silvey, author of 100 Best Books for Children and Everything I Need to Know I Learned from a Children's Book
"Hilarious and charming." -People Magazine
"This is a spectacular children's book, one that stresses the most important lessons of love, democracy and acceptance...I won't wreck the ending, but I will say there is good reason to make this a bestseller. Any children's book that can move me to mist up because, ultimately, love does conquer all, is a book worth sharing." --The Star-Ledger
