What are your favorite Easter books?
This post is linked up with No Time For Flashcards.








I just checked out Rechenka’s eggs from the library this week. We’ll need to take a peek at Jan Brett’s Easter book- we adore her work. One book that we enjoy is title The Best Thing About Easter. (cute for little ones to teach that Jesus is the main reason we celebrate)
