5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful! Feb 23 2003
By Amy Flink
Format:School & Library Binding
This book is well written and enjoyable; about 2 friends who always seem to get in trouble. You can learn a lot from this book. Beast and Matthew think they're in deep deep trouble when the school's rabbit-on-wheels (for the Easter play) "runs amuck" and loses it's head!! Parts of this book, like all of Giff's delightful books, made me giggle. She is a wonderful author...Beast thinks if he's quiet about the rabbit, the problem will go away but one thing leads to another and he accidentally mooshes his sister's jewelry box and feels terrible. Besides that he has suspicions that she is planning a party for him. Normally reading these books I saw his sister Holly as being like an obnoxious, bossy old cow, but in this book you see her becoming a good sister and he confides in her about the "Monster Rabbit running amuck". Wonderful book and character devlopment, however I think Holly still should've had a party for Richard since he was so depressed that the party she was planning was really for her class!

4.0 out of 5 stars cute story Jun 5 2002
By Melissa Sack
Format:Library Binding
We read this as a read aloud in our homeschool. The book kept my son's attention fairly well. This was the first Polk street school book that we have read. We might look into reading more of the series.

4.0 out of 5 stars A good book for children learning to read chapter books July 25 2001
By A Customer
Format:Library Binding
This was one of the first chapter books I've read. The beginning of the story was a bit confusing because Richard, the main character, says "the beast is home!" He says the beast is home because people call him the beast! So the beast in the story is a little boy.

In the story, it's almost Richard's birthday. He thinks that Holly, his big sister, and her friend Joanne, are making a party for him. [...]

Richard and his best friend Matthew have to help bring a rabbit to the kindergarten spring play.

It was a fun book to read.
