This is a bright, colorful and fun Easter book for littles. It's not just a fun story, but it's also interactive for those little fingers and imaginations.

I absolutely adore the illustrations and the ending after all the different animals have collected their eggs and brought them together.

Definitely a fun one I would recommend.

This is a cute egg book for young readers. It is very colorful.

I love that this books rhymes! It names different animals that find Easter eggs without saying that it’s for Easter. Perfect for everyone who wants a non religious Easter book.

Hello, friends! Our book today is Egg: A Chasing, Racing Egg Hunt, written by Jonathan Litton and illustrated by Fhiona Galloway, a sweet Easter board book for little bookworms.

Using the colorful eggs themselves to frame a series of cutouts, the simple rhyming story follows a band of barnyard friends as they hunt for eggs around the farm. Once they’ve found every last one, they pile them together to celebrate… until a cracking sounds reveals a surprise inside!

Easy Easter fun. With large print text, gentle rhymes and a classic rhythm, as well as adorable, brightly colorful animals and environments, this is a great way for little ones to celebrate spring egg hunts. The cutouts add a nice feature visually, as well as providing an easy grip for little hands to turn pages. The length is about what you’d expect from a toddler board book, and JJ loved it! A great little Easter story for the littlest readers, and it’s Baby Bookworm approved!
