Little Rabbit enjoys helping his father, the Easter Bunny, paint eggs, but when it comes time to part with his last creation, he would rather give it to his mother as a present instead. By the author of Happy Christmas to All.
Book Description
Editorial Reviews
From Publishers Weekly
Little Rabbit asks his father, the Easter Bunny, if he can help decorate and distribute the holiday eggs. While Dad loads the cart, Little Rabbit makes a mess but manages to color one special egg in the process. He saves this particular creation for his mother--which hardly seems "surprise" enough to justify the title or serve as a premise for this pedestrian offering. Kids may have difficulty relating to the prim Little Rabbit, who asks "May I?" at several junctures and at one point addresses his mother as "ma'am." The parents here seem unduly concerned with Little Rabbit's every move, which may account for the absence of spirit that could have infused the story with much-needed style and zest. Flat cartoons in Easter egg colors--frequently formated in comic-book style--depict a static trio (no other characters appear) whose expressions rarely change. Ages 3-8.

From School Library Journal
PreSchool-K-- Little Rabbit is anxious to help his father, the Easter Bunny, decorate his eggs and then hide them as he goes on his appointed rounds. The word ``help'' is used loosely here because, like all young children, Little Rabbit's eagerness far exceeds his level of assistance. But throughout every well-intended mishap, his parents are there to lend a hand. Little Rabbit is a typical preschooler, full of a clumsy gusto for life, while his model parents are patient, supportive, and loving. The bright, simple cartoons feature lots of rounded edges and plenty of open space. The colors are those of Easter--yellows, greens, blues, and fuchsia; the text is totally in white dialogue balloons. An appealing holiday picture book to be enjoyed all year long. --Kay McPherson, Central Atlanta-Fulton Public Library
