How Did Easter Egg Hunting Happen According to Peter's Whoopsies?
Or Mistakes Sometimes Make Magic
This is a festive picture book called, "Peter Rabbit's Happy Easter!" published by Scholastic and written by Grace Maccarone (not sure if the last name is pronounced like the noodle, or like the bird). She has written several books, notably the Lina's Ballerina series, and several others (us.macmillan.com)
David McPhail is the books illustrator, and has many other illustrated books besides. In this book he has given the characters an old-timey artistic feel to them, like the picture books created from the 1930's. They have a comforting warm feeling to them. In the many books McPhail has illustrated, (jmcphailillustrations.com) the two I initially became familiar with were the Pig Pig series, and the Big Brown Bear series which my kids adore.
It's nice to see two seasoned picture book creators match up and do a book together.
This Easter Premiere read aloud comes out this 3/22/21 for viewing on Tumpsky and Mrs. Small channel via Youtube. Set your Count-Down Clocks! I know you'll enjoy the extra cartooning surprise!
