To celebrate Easter, a diverse group of people eat candy that the Easter Bunny has brought, dye eggs and hide them in the garden, and visit family in their holiday best. This is a very small, short book, perfect for packing in the pocket of a diaper bag and reading with a small child with a short attention span!

The colors are very bright, and the pictures have a very geometric feel to them, with circles, squares, and rectangles making up the flowers, faces, and objects in the pictures. There's a bit of a retro feel as well, with girls in A-line dresses, knee socks, and Mary Jane shoes. There's even a girl wearing an Easter bonnet!

Good Points

The thing that intrigued me the most about this title was the claim that it was rip proof and chew proof. The book certainly held up when I tried very gently to rip a page, and the pages do seem to bounce back from heavy folding and creasing. Admittedly, I even gummed a page, just to be thorough! It didn't taste like anything, and the colorful book only has a faint scent of ink; a lot of picture books and graphic novels have quite an odor, so whatever nontoxic ink was used to not have any of that aroma, nor did any color run when I licked a page repeatedly. I did not test to see if a combination of chocolate bunny and saliva would wipe easily off the pages, but I imagine it would!

My very favorite Easter themed picture book is Heyward's The Country Bunny and the Little Gold Shoes, but it's a bit long for the youngest readers. I'm also a big proponent of books for holidays, , and this would be a great addition to a basket containing Adams' Little Chick, Paul's Hatch and Match, Yoon's Is This... Easter?, or Toht's beautiful Pick a Perfect Egg.
