Bookroo's summary
Hoppi the bunny dreams of helping the Easter Rabbit by crafting the best Easter egg. But when his efforts falter, a chance encounter with a fallen robin's egg changes everything. As Hoppi cares for the egg, he discovers that true kindness can lead to unexpected rewards. Will his selfless act be enough to win the Easter Rabbit's favor? Dive into a world of vibrant illustrations and heartwarming surprises as Hoppi learns that sometimes the simplest gestures are the most extraordinary.
From the publisher
Jan Brett’s lovable bunny hero, Hoppi, and her remarkable Easter Rabbit will enchant readers as they pore over illustrations filled with dazzling eggs made by Flora Bunny, Aunt Sassyfrass and others.
If Hoppi can make the best Easter egg, he will get to help the Easter Rabbit with his deliveries on Easter morning. But it is not so easy. Discouraged, he goes into the woods to think when a blue robin’s egg tumbles out of its nest. Hoppi keeps it safe and warm until the baby bird hatches, and when the Easter Rabbit arrives, he declares the empty blue eggshell the very best one to reward Hoppi for his kindness.
Spring is everywhere in gorgeous illustrations framed with pussy willows, flowering vines and flowers. Side borders feature busy rabbits making their unusual eggs and, in a border above, the Robin’s family drama unfolds.
A gatefold surprise reveals the Easter Rabbit.
