Bunny Isabel's Easter Egg Hunt A seasonal lift-the-flap book full of springtime surprises Here comes Bunny Isabel, just in time to help poor Mother Hen, who's lost her egg. Is it in the tree? No-hoo, says Owl when children lift the flap and see him nestled in the branches. On her search, Bunny Isabel finds lots of other friends behind the flaps, too: a little green frog perches in the cattails, a woolly sheep stands behind a gate, a buzzing bee hides beneath a flower. But no one has seen Mother Hen's precious egg. Finally, when children lift the flap on the last page, they will discover a special Easter surprise: Mother Hen's newly hatched baby chick! Max Haynes combines colors as fresh as a sunny day with big simple shapes and arrives at the perfect mixture for springtime fun. |
