Top Ten Children’s Easter Books Plus One
Sunday March 27, 2005
I have one more Easter book to recommend in addition to my Top Ten Children’s Easter Books. It’s “Rechenka’s Eggs,” a picture book written and illustrated by Patricia Polacco. Kindly old Babushka takes in an injured goose. She names the goose Rechenka and nurses it back to health. Unfortunately, Rechenka ruins all of the beautiful Easter eggs Babushka has so painstakingly painted. Miraculously, Rechenka replaces all the beautiful eggs by laying one intricately colored egg every day for 13 days, so that Babushka has enough to take to the Easter Festival. Rechenka also leaves a wonderful surprise for Babushka.
