Editorial Review

From the series titled Our Holiday Symbols for children age 6 and up, ‘Easter Bunnies’ presents pages of fascinating facts about the fun and fables associated with Easter, the spring holiday festival that celebrates the beginning of another growing season and year. Simple narrative style, with highlighted chapter headings posed as questions about traditions associated with Easter and Spring are complemented by bright pages of color photos with green, egg-shaped sidebar notes to target other special areas of information about Easter and Spring. Bunnies, baskets, decorated eggs, new Easter outfits, and advice about the need to care for a pet such as a baby bunny are all topics to cover, enlarge, and embellish. Finished with a glossary, list of books and web sites on related subjects, ‘Easter Bunnies’ is a responsible, fun, and informative text about Our Holiday Symbols associated with Easter.
