Bookroo's summary

Cat, with flair and ambition, decides to take over the Easter Bunny's duties, donning a sparkly suit and riding a Harley. But delivering Easter eggs proves exhausting, leaving little time for Cat's beloved naps. When a weary Easter Bunny arrives with a surprise, Cat must choose between mischief and kindness. Will Cat's solution be as stylish as his suit? This whimsical tale offers a fresh twist on Easter traditions, blending humor with heart. Discover if Cat can handle the holiday hustle or if he'll find a clever way to share the spotlight.

From the publisher

With this New York Times bestseller comes a cat with flair to spare, an Easter Bunny with a job to do, and a hilarious break from sticky-sweet Easter fare—for fans of Patrick McDonnell and Mo Willems’s Elephant and Piggie books.

Why should the Easter Bunny get all the love? That’s what Cat would like to know. So he decides to take over: He dons his sparkly suit, jumps on his Harley, and roars off into the night. But it turns out delivering Easter eggs is hard work. And it doesn’t leave much time for naps (of which Cat has taken five–no, seven). So when a pooped-out Easter Bunny shows up, and with a treat for Cat, what will Cat do? His surprise solution will be stylish, smart, and even—yes—kind.

An homage to classic comic strips from the author of The Quiet Book and The Loud Book, this Easter treat has a bit of bite, a sweet center, and a satisfying finish—sure to inspire second helpings.

Great as an Easter basket stuffer—read it at Eastertime and year-round!

This book is written so the reader is telling the story. It is very simple but would capture a child's interest and may help involve them in the story.
