And I am thrilled you remembered the Gail Rock book. Tomie dePaola did a board book called My First Easter, which was terrific and then of course Dav Pilkey's Dumb Bunnies celebrate Easter with a decorated tree and stocking at the chimney. <BR/>The decorated eggs on your table are gorgeous. <BR/>My favorite part of Easter these days is the half price jellybeans on Monday. <BR/>Thanks for the Brunch post.skynychttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15488019149858410802noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7046320545497573335.post-76253352494458613792008-03-24T21:29:00.000-04:002008-03-24T21:29:00.000-04:00Definitely add THE COUNTRY BUNNY to your list.

I challenge you to do it without crying at the part when the Grandfather Bunny arrives from the other side of the world to give the Country Bunny her Little Gold Shoes. <BR/>I'm going to go find my copy now (not first edition, alas) and read it. And cry, of course.<BR/>Happy Easter from the West Side of the State!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
