Howard B. Wigglebottom is a delightful bunny that has a bit of
difficulty with life. He encounters bullies. He doesn't listen. He needs courage.
Author Howard Birkow understands children's needs and the struggles they face on the playground and in the classroom. He and illustrator Jeremy Norton have put together a book that will help a young child manage the bully he encounters on the playground. The feeling he has to keep all his toys for himself and not to share. The tendency to not listen. And the need for courage to face obstacles.

In “Howard B. Wigglebottom Learns About Courage” Howard Binklow has his main character “Howard” face his fears and learn how to use his courage. This delightful tale depicts Howard facing the monsters under the bed, the dark, and the first day of school. All of these fears are exactly what young children face in their own lives. The reader can relate to the fears faced by Howard and they too can learn to work through the fear and develop the courage to be brave.
The continuing character building stories of Howard. B. Wigglebottom are always a joy to read and share with children. (rev.C.Delorge, librarian)
