The Legend of the Easter Egg Board Book

New to the board book format, The Legend of the Easter Egg by Lori Walburg, illus. by James Bernardin, is adapted from the book of the same title first published in 1999. When Thomas's sister gets scarlet fever just before Easter, Thomas must stay with a neighbor, who cheers him by explaining the symbolism of Easter eggs: ""Well, just as a chick breaks out of an egg... Jesus broke out of the grave. And because he did, Jesus gives us life that lasts forever. That is the promise and joy of Easter!""
