Countdown to Easter

Countdown to Easter
Reading Level: K − 1st Grade

Bursting with holiday joy, each spread of this charming primer invites toddlers to count down the days until Easter by finding and counting objects hidden in playful scenes of springtime fun.

It's only seven more days until Easter and what do we do? We have an egg and spoon race, of course! And when we get down to only one more day, we're definitely going on an Easter egg hunt!

This springtime holiday is on its way, and now everyone gets to count down the days! Toddlers learn to count down from 10 to 1 by finding objects hidden throughout these charming scenes of Easter fun rendered in illustrator Greg Paprocki's classically retro mid-century art style. From finding bunny rabbits and yellow chicks to having an Easter egg roll and dyeing eggs, there's fun to be had on every page. The final spread is packed with surprises! Discover new details in each illustration with every successive reading.

Toddler-PreS--It's time to count down to Easter! Each page of this cheery holiday board book asks readers to find and count a spring item, whether it's bunnies, chicks, flowers, or carrots. What makes this book especially fun is that readers can continue to look for those items on the other pages as well. The illustrations show a diverse community of adults and children enjoying spring activities, including decorating for Easter, gardening, enjoying an Easter egg hunt, and going to a parade. This is an ideal book to share with babies through preschoolers because of its wildly bright illustrations and interactive nature. VERDICT A welcome addition to most collections.--Shana Shea
