An unexpected diversion. I love that. I am going to have to use that next time I get lost with the kids and they all yell at me to use the Garmin. "No kids," I'll say. "This is just an unexpected diversion!" It's a positive spin and a fun way to explain away some speed bumps on a journey.

Knuffle Bunny Free An Unexpected Diversion from author Mo Willems is children's book about a little girl named Trixie. Trixie first explores her neighborhood, then school. Now in this third and final book of the series, takes a trip to Holland where she sadly loses her favorite stuffed friend, Knuffle Bunny.

It's a sweet story illustrated with a mix of actual photos and colorful illustrations that tells about a journey and a misplaced beloved toy which turns out to be almost a right of passage for Trixie. Find it for $10.52 @ Amazon.Com.
