In real life, Wilbur is an ordinary rabbit. When he goes to work each morning, he becomes TV's superhero, the Bionic Bunny. Can clumsy Wilbur really leap over tall buildings and crash through solid brick walls with ease? Do his Bionic Ears really let him hear anything, anywhere?
Clever, funny, and informative, this is actually two books in one, as it follows an exciting episode of THE BIONIC BUNNY SHOW from start to finish, putting all the Bionic Bunny's powers to the test as he struggles to outwit the Robber Rats. In the process, it takes you behind the scenes, showing how sets, costumes, make-up, lighting, special effects, and the camera transform an ordinary actor like Wilbur into a TV superhero who never seems to falter.
