Easter Egg Disaster: A Holiday House Reader Level 2

Karen Gray Ruelle. Holiday House, $4.95 (32pp) ISBN 978-0-8234-1823-7

Previously appearing in The Crunchy, Munchy Christmas Tree, series stars (and siblings) Harry and Emily return for a nearly calamitous holiday in Easter Egg Disaster: A Harry and Emily Adventure by Karen Gray Ruelle. Despite their best intentions, the pair breaks copious quantities of eggs and discovers-too late-that boots and radiators turn out to be less-than-ideal hiding places for hardboiled or chocolate eggs.
