Obtain Immediately The Night Before Easter: Special Edition Composed By Natasha Wing Supplied As Hardbound

cute Scholastic book. A take on "The Night Before Christmas" except with the Easter Bunny!
My youngest really liked it, Written in the same way as The Night Before Christmas, kids who are familiar with that story will no doubt love this one with an Easter bunny twist, This is part of series of other holiday books by the author, I wanted to give this star three but just couldn't, I picked up this book thinking it would be a cute read, I do not mind adaptations of classics and poems, My friend and I did one before for a lady who was retiring from work several years ago, As we were reading it was cute and kept my daughters attention which is always a good thing so I am sure this will be a reread in our house.
The reason I could not give it is three is because the little boy knows where all the eggs were hidden by the Easter bunny!!! He has an advantage over his sister so in a way he is cheating and I really did not like that aspect of the poem.
Fun, descriptive, well illustrated story that children will love to read before Easter! I read this to my grandson a couple of days after Easter, He seemed to enjoy it anyway, The perfect Easter story choice for fans of The Night Before Christmas, Cute illustrations and a nice quick "before bed" read Would definitely recommend to anyone with kiddos We read lots of easterthemed bunnys, eggs, chicks when Bea was little but this one is really the only easter book that is still fun to read.
I love "The Night Before Christmas" original so perhaps that is part of it, The illustrations are cute and go along with the springy, light poem, Talk about a ripoff I was hoping this would be a cute book, but I open it up to find a rehashing of The Night Before Christmas, . . And it wasn't even done well! Not a book I would have picked up if it hadn't been free, A family of cute bunnies are getting ready for the big day of Easter, This is just a spring book with no mention of the real meaning of Easter, "Twas the night before Easter, just before dawn, Not a creature was stirring out on the lawn, "The Easter bunny takes center stage in this delightful spin on Clement C, Moore's beloved poem that will send families hopping to the bookstore for an Easter treat sweeter than any sugar plum! The kids really enjoyed this book, This is Natashas series using holidays with the Night before Christmas The verse that says, visions of sugarplums danced in their heads, this story uses jellybeans and the picture of their dream had dancing jelly beans and the kids loved that.
They laughed and the nephew wanted to be able to color it, He went crazy for dancing jellybeans, I should write a story about dancing jellybeans, At least the nephew would go crazy for it,

Its a very cute book for kids with fun artwork, Great for anyone who celebrates Easter and hides eggs,

The nephew gave thisdancing jellybean and the niece gave thisstars, Interesting what they find amusing and what they focus on, Natasha Wing's series of books, "The Night Before, . . ", are always fun and are a great way to celebrate an impending holiday, Likewise the illustrations are colorful, cute and detailed enough to create interest for several readings, This was one of my childhood books I loved reading,
Ive read several holiday books by Natasha Wing as an adult, and theyre usually all cute and charming, I didnt realize I had one of her books in my collection!

The illustrations were adorable,
The kids, their outfits, the little chick standing in the doorway after the Easter Bunny came in the house, The chick seemed to be his helper, like Santa and his elves, The little boy watching the easter bunny from the stairs was adorable,
Truly cute and colorful images that are pleasant to look at, So much detail to take in, Even a little mouse reaches out of his hole to grab a piece of candy,

I havent read this since I was a kid, and it was amazing how some of the lines sparked my memory when I reread them,

At times I felt it mirrored Twas the Night Before Christmas too closely, with the visions dancing in their heads, and made such a clatter, and to see what was the matter lines being the same.

I liked hearing him described, with the crook in his ear, and his eyes how they sparkled! his whiskers how merry! his tail was like cotton his nose like a berry!

It was nice revisiting a book from my childhood.
I've probably read this dozens of times as a kid, but I'll just mark it as having been read twice, Cute, I hope to pass these books on to my grandchildren or nieces and nephews someday, Cute, fun, simple, silly could make for an every holiday traditions, There is a whole series! K and I read this before bed and he seemed to really enjoy it, It is almost like the book Twas The Night Before Christmas as it has the same type of tune but instead of Christmas it is Easter! We read as the Easter bunny comes to visit and what he leaves behind.
Adorable read right before Easter that I think kids of all ages would enjoy,
The pictures went right along with the story being told and K enjoyed it, He asked if he would get as much candy this Easter as what was in the book, Had to remind him that was a lot of candy for one person to have, Cute, quick little holiday story with brightly colored illustrations, This story is based on the poetic style of The Night Before Christmas,

It brought back many happy memories for me!

If I was reading this to a child, I would make sure he or she would locate the orange tabby on each page!

Little ones, who are engaged, while being read the story, will be more likely to want to read it a second, third, fourth time etc.


What a fun read! Written in the same style as The Night Before Christmas, this is a book that kids will love to have read to them and will enjoy reading.
It's a story that covers the fun part of Easter, and helps readers discover all that the Easter Bunny does when he pays them a visit at their house, It's cute illustrations, and fast paced read make this the perfect story to be read before nap time, or bed time, This is a story that preschoolers will easily follow and understand,

This charming homage to the famous Christmas poem is a wonderful way to preface Easter, A young boy is settling down to sleep on the night before Easter when he hears the Easter Bunny arrive, He follows the bunny through the house as he completes his Easter mission, The poem is loads of rhyming fun that will keep young ones entranced and giggling, The bunny is a picture of delight as leaps about his business, Warm pastels convey Easter in a lovely way and every kid will connect with the young boy and his expressions of clandestine anticipation, I predict that this is and could become an Easter tradition in many homes,

This is a fun Easter book, however unlike the other night before books, it seems to follow the traditional Night Before Christmas to much, The kids liked it but, I think they would enjoy it more if it were a little funnier, I had this on my toread list and my sister mentioned that she owned it so that made it even better, Didn't even have to go through checking it out at the library, I've read several by this author and she hits all the major holidays so I had to read this, and on the night before Easter, of course!

I like the egg as the "o" in the title.
I like all the pastel colors, The pages were jam packed full of images, maybe too much because it was hard to see everything and I felt like I would miss something,

She mentioned putting Easter baskets out and hoping they'd be filled, but you don't put Easter baskets out, Those are brought to the kids kids don't come with their own baskets,

She had the kids have visions of jelly beans in their heads which is fitting,

I liked the page: "He walked on two legs which I thought was quite funny no rabbit could do thatexcept, Easter Bunny!"
That was such a cute idea.


He pushed a cart of candy and it's charming that he wears a vest and pants and a bow tie, He's accompanied by a chick wearing shoes, The boy's little brown bear slippers are adorable and his expression of surprise with his eyes wide and mouth open was so cute, The Easter Bunny filled the baskets and the little boy lay on his stomach on the landing, with a cute smile, Idk how the Bunny didn't see him though because he was a few feet away,

Easter Bunny then went around hiding eggs around the house, Then he left at sunrise when the rooster crowed and left a note wishing a good day, The rhymes weren't all that, I expected more out of the holiday, for more Easter traditions and things mentioned, Cute story about the Easter Bunny preparing the night before, Colorful! I ordered this book as part of an easter gift, and it iscuan easter parody of the night before christmas, but i love it so much still, It's a really cute book and i cannot wait for the girls to read it on easter eve get the joke haha Why am I a writer When I was a young girl, I wanted to be a teacher.
Id line up my stuffed animals in front of a board and teach them the alphabet and how to count, In high school I wanted to be a tennis player, I was on the tennis team, and played at our neighborhood tennis club, Then in college I thought digging dinosaur bones would be a cool job, It wasnt until I was working at my own public relations agency that I decided I really wanted to write childrens books, I was so inspired by the magic of reading a book that I wanted to see if my active imagination could create magical moments for kids all over the world.

Im not so crazy about the revising process although there are thrilling moments when I figure out a better way to say something, or when I nail dialog, or work through a complicated plot line.
The most exciting moment is when an editor says they want to publish my manuscript, Then I know all my hard work has paid off, and that soon, children will enter my imaginative world through a book, sitelink.
