Easter Bunny Saves the Day

Anne Mussenbrock, Brigit Meyer. Parklane Publishing, $5.99 (12pp) ISBN 978-1-59384-037-2

It's egg-painting time in the egg-shaped Easter Bunny Saves the Day, the first of two novelty board books by Brigit Meyer, illus. by Anne Mussenbrock. Here the bunny's cottony tail pokes out of a die-cut hole on the cover. In The Little Easter Surprise, a ""cracked"" cardboard eggshell on the cover slides up to reveal the little Easter surprise itself-a newborn chick who needs help finding its mother.
