A tale of tolerance and advocacy for both children & adults

A beautiful tale about a boy bunny, Marlon Bundo, who falls in love with another boy bunny, Wesley. Marlon's grandpa happens to be, Vice President Mike Pence. In real life, Pence has held a strong opposition to LGBTQ rights; young children will probably not be aware of this and so the humor is there for the parents. There is no sexual content in this book and is merely about love. The artwork is amazing and Marlon looks very dapper in his fantastic bow-ties. The stink bug declares that there will only be love between boy/girl bunnies and not boy/boy bunnies and that because Marlon loves Wesley, he is different and bad. Of course the stink bug resembles Pence. I bought this book on Kindle for my 6 month old granddaughter and I read it to her immediately and am eagerly waiting the hardcover version. I also read it to my 2 male and very gay cats and both the baby and 2 cats enjoyed it immensely! This book is a great teaching aid for children born to heterosexual parents or children of same sex parents, not to mention adults!

Wesley and Quinn have a love to hate relationship. She blames him for her parents divorce and spends the entire book trying to get even. Cool premise, but it falls a bit flat for me.
the cover shows a food truck, but that doesn't show up until like 3/4 of the way through so I am not quite sure why it's the cover? In fact the whole cover is quite deceptive as to what is actually in the book. But moving on.
While I enjoy a good hate to love story this was just meh, the character of Quinn was naive, dumb, and easy to peg. I just couldn't get into it.
