Welcome to the world of Easter Eggs and Bunny wishes, where a kid learns there is more than this for the reason for this season. Just like Christmas, Easter is part of one long glorious story;;and Christians all over the world celebrate this day. Penelope Dyan knows how much fun those Easter baskets and things are to kids, and so she doesn't ignore them in the telling of the story. As usual, she incorporates humor and fun into this book with her kid friendly illustrations and host of wonderfully lovable characters as she presents her poetry with a story to which a child can relate and from which a child can learn. Dyan is an award winning author and poet, a former teacher and an attorney who knows and understands kids and who most importantly remembers what it was like to simply be a kid. This is why she is able to relate to them so well. Using tried and true techniques she used with children when she was a teacher, techniques she used with her own children when they were growing up, she brings her classroom right to you with her use of repetition and rhyme, reinforcing basic early reading and learning skills. All Dyan's books, as are all Bellissima books, are books with a meaning and a purpose You can't go wrong with a Bellissima book
