Written and illustrated by the son of Stan and Jan Berenstain. In this beginning reader story, the Bear family are ready for the Easter Bunny’s visit, but they are sad to start hunting and find none of the anticipated eggs or goodies. Papa Bear’s attempt to be an Easter Bunny substitute has the silly antics that fans of the series will expect and enjoy. Mama has the family go out to look for the real Easter Bunny who turns out to be taking a break from the annual duty. The Bear children’s pleas of need for the Easter Bunny make the Easter Bunny call out the helper bunnies and get delivery of baskets full of eggs and goodies started once again. This beginning reader from the I Can Read! series is from the My First stage with basic language and good for a shared reading experience for readers in grades K-1.
