3 cute picture books for Easter
I’ve received review copies of books
Everybunny Count! by Ellie Sandall
With charming illustrations and rhyming text, Everybunny Count! by Ellie Sandall (Hodder Children’s Books, £6.99) is a sweet picture book about foxes and bunnies playing hide-and-seek. The counting story is ideal for families planning on practising counting up to 10 over the holiday, as the cute illustrations can make counting fun for children. We’ve been counting bunnies and foxes, and I think the book could make for a sweet Easter gift.
The First Egg Hunt by Adam and Charlotte Guillain
My favourite Easter book is currently The First Egg Hunt by Adam and Charlotte Guillain (Egmont, £6.99), and I love how this funny, rhyming story comes up with a sweet explanation for the Easter egg hunt tradition. In the book, Easter Bunny first gets all the credit for the Easter eggs despite the Easter Chick having worked hard to make them. Easter Chick then hatches a cunning plan, which accidentally turns into the first ever Easter Egg hunt. In addition to being a charming story for Easter with delightful illustrations by Pippa Curnick, I like the focus on teamwork and friendship in The First Egg Hunt.
Little Grey Rabbit: Moldy Warp the Mole and Little Grey Rabbit: The Knot Squirrel Tale by Alison Uttley
Alison Uttley’s sweet and innocent Little Grey Rabbit books have captured the hearts of generations and Templar Publishing has been republishing many of the classics in the past few years. In January, two more were republished–Little Grey Rabbit: Moldy Warp the Mole (Templar Publishing, £5.99) and Little Grey Rabbit: The Knot Squirrel Tied (Templar Publishing, £5.99)–and the cute hardback books tell stories about the adventures of Little Grey Rabbit, Squirrel, Hare and their animal friends. The books feature classic illustrations by Margaret Tempest and make for charming little Easter treats that could also be easy to pack for anyone travelling over the school holiday.
