This included cropping their photos as well as turning them from color to black and white. They were also involved in the basic photo editing process. Then, each student chose his or her favorite location and used the camera to take a digital photograph of that spot. When my nephew was in Kindergarten, his class did a Mo Willems author study and they used Knuffle Bunny for one of their projects. It is an interesting contrast to the bright cartoon character illustrations. As Trixie and her father travel to the Laundromat, they pass by several neighborhood landmarks, such as a school and a park, all of which are photographed in black and white. What makes it very unique is the combination of illustration (the characters) and photography (the scenery). Once they find it, Trixie utters her first real words, Knuffle Bunny. When they arrive home, her mother discovers that Knuffle Bunny is missing and the three of them run back to the Laundromat and search frantically for Trixie's favorite toy. She tries to communicate this to her father, but since she does not yet have the words to express what is happening, her father just thinks she is having a tantrum. Trixie helps her father with the laundry and, on their way home, realizes that Knuffle Bunny is missing. In this story, Trixie, her father, and Knuffle Bunny travel to the Laundromat one afternoon.
