Chubby Bunny
The debut picture book from the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Dumplin'. Told with Julie Murphy's trademark humor and heart, this is a clever, funny body-positive story about loving yourself.
Barbara "Bunny" Binks comes from a long line of Barbaras, that started with her mother and grandmother. She loves putting her hair up in "bunny buns," playing with her rabbit Ralph, and eating marshmallows.
Then one day, she participates in her favorite marshmallow eating contest at field day called "Chubby Bunny," and her classmates start teasing her.
But with a little help from another Barbara, Bunny figures out a very sweet solution.
Julie Murphy lives in North Texas with her husband, who loves her; her dog, who adores her; and her cats, who tolerate her. After several wonderful years in the library world, Julie now writes full-time. When she's not writing or reliving her reference desk glory days, she can be found watching made-for-TV movies, hunting for the perfect slice of cheese pizza, or planning her next great travel adventure. She is also the author of the young adult novels, Puddin', Ramona Blue, Side Effects May Vary, and Dumplin' (now a Netflix original film). This is her first book for middle-grade readers.
