The Berenstain Bears encounter the magic of EasterSpring is here, the trees are budding, and everywhere in the countryside, nature is coming back to life. In Bear Country, the most magical time of the year isn't Christmas or Halloween or Thanksgiving—it's Easter! But for Brother Bear and Sister Bear, the only good kind of Easter egg is the kind that's full of chocolate.
This spellbinding Easter poem tells of the majesty of spring and the joys of rebirth, but doesn't overlook the show more pleasures of delicious Easter treats. And as flowers bloom and animals come out to play, Brother and Sister learn a valuable Easter lesson: how to avoid a stomachache!

I absolutely adored The Berenstein Bears as a child, so when I came across this one on Netgalley, I was extremely excited to share it with my pre-school aged little girl. She absolutely loved the story. The characters are the same lovable characters of my youth. The pictures were adorable, and the underlying message that is always in this books was also present. I won't tell you hat it was. You will have to share it with your children yourself if you want to find out!
