We read this one a lot. It’s cute, but not much to it. The rhythm is nice and can be mellowed down for nap/bedtime. Curious to see how we interact with it as baby gets older, with the cut-outs and the Easter egg hunt.

The Easter Bunny is trying to gather five little bunnies from out of the clover, so he calls to them and one by one they finally come.
Such a cute little counting book reminiscent of Ten in the Bed. The rhyming text flows so well that reading it aloud is a dream. Fun for lap time reading. Inevitably this will find its way into many Easter baskets.
Jack and I borrowed this book from the Ashland Public Library.
The illustrations and rhyme are cute. We like bunnies. But I’m not sure I understand why the Easter bunny keeps calling them out of the clover when they’re not in clover. Or where the other bunnies go.
Jack liked the bunnies when we picked the book out, but honestly, he was so cranky before nap time that he didn’t engage with the book much. Lol
