Willems, Mo (2007). Knuffle Bunny Too: A Case of Mistaken Identity. New York, NY: Hyperion Books for Children.
Trixie is so happy to have her bunny back in part 2 of the Knuffle Bunny series. She is taking her Knuffle Bunny with her to school and is happy as could be until she notices a girl named Sonja with the exact same bunny!! After the two girls argue which of the bunnies is better, the teacher confiscates them and puts them away. When school is over, each of the girls is given back what they "think" is their Knuffle Bunny. It isn't until 2:30 am that the girls realize that they are sleeping with the WRONG bunnies. Trixie and Sonja's dads meet in the city to exchange bunnies and the girls are happy again. Actually, they are now best friends :)
The artwork in the book is amazing!! The backgrounds to the pictures are beautiful black and white photos of New York City streets, schools, and houses. On top of these great photographs, Mo Willems has drawn great cartoon like color characters for the story. Word bubbles are drawn above the character to show dialogue.
