The sunlight is starting to rise earlier in the mornings and the cold winter weather is starting to fade.  Now is a wonderful time to celebrate the upcoming arrival of spring on March 20!  The new book, Egg, by Kevin Henkes is not only a perfect Easter gift, but also a fun read-alone and read-aloud that will appeal all year long.

My girls are so very excited about Easter and Egg has been a delightful picture book we have read aloud and Brooke has enjoyed reading to us and her little sister.  The story focuses on the hatching of four colorful eggs where three hatch into three birds while the other has not yet hatched. The little birdies investigate and are in for a real surprise when their newest sibling arrives!  This is a creative anticipatory book for preschoolers that our family has enjoyed reading and re-reading!
