A truly non-religious Easter book! A very cute4 story with very charming illustrations that explains the seemingly unexplainable -- why Easter eggs are delivered by a bunny.
An elderly round couple dye eggs, melt and mold chocolate, and weave baskets to delight the children of their village on Easter morning. Because he's watched carefully, their pet bunny helps the next year. "It was magic." As the couple get older and the children see it's a rabbit delivering their special Easter gifts, the bunny decides it's time to set up his own perfect place so his deliveries could be kept a secret.
So cute. This one's got to go to Ella.
