By the time the parade comes, he doesn't have an egg, but he does have a baby robin! And of course the Easter Bunny is most impressed. The little bunny helps a mother robin when one of her eggs falls out of the nest-he sits on the egg until it hatches. His bunny friends give him a little something from each of their craft processes-there are chocolate eggs, Russian eggs, wood-carved eggs. The little bunny wants to participate for the first time but he feels his egg will never be as good as the other ones. All the bunnies are decorating eggs to show the Easter Bunny and the winner will be able to ride with the Easter Bunny in the Easter Parade. Here we have an extremely adorable story filled with super cuddly bunnies of various breeds-they are sooo cute-and lots of beautiful eggs. But there always seems to be something in the stories that doesn't quite sit right with me, and I don't know why. I think some of her illustrations are absolutely fabulous and others are just so-so for me. I'm not sure why I can never become wholeheartedly a Jan Brett fan.
