Annie's birthday is coming up, and she plans to have a dress-up party. She looks forward to wearing ribbons, bows, lace, and fancy little shoes. But when the guests arrive- including Henry and Mudge-Annie learns that different people dress up in different ways....

Newbery Medal winner Cynthia Rylant's 100 plus children's books have garnered numerous honors, including the Theodor Seuss Geisel Award. In this delightful episode of Rylant's endearing beginning reader series, pals from her Henry and Mudge books join Annie and her pet bunny Snowball to look for a unique group of kids. Annie simply adores teacups and longs for friends who love these dainty delights as much as she does. But how can a boy like Henry...

Annie and her bunny watch and wait as a nest is built above the porch swing, and eventually they get to see the mother bird feeding her babies.

Annie takes her rabbit to the home of her new friend, Sarah, to play and enjoys seeing the pretty house full of frilly things, walking in the beautiful garden, and making a tiny garden house for a fairy tea party.

Annie and Henry join the summer reading club at the library, and vow to be "Book Bugs" for life.

Annie goes on a surprise road trip with her dad and her pet bunny, Snowball.
