Product Information
Spring is full of life and life is full of eggs, all sorts of eggs: great cosmic eggs and tiny butterfly eggs, salmon eggs and bird eggs, rabbit eggs and special eggs being gilded and painted by two gmes called Pine Cone and Pepper Pot. They have been told (gossiped!) that Farmer John's children, Tom and June, are going to give them special eggs for Easter, and they decide to reciprocate. However, if you are a gme, a small gme-even if you are two small gmes-then the simplest of tasks (such as finding a bird who does t mind giving you a couple of their eggs) can be a problem, a big problem!Woven into the fabric of the book are many tales and legends: Pepper Pot reads the history of King Karnac and the Turning of Time, Madam Two-Pecks tells her chicks how the universe was created from the World Egg, the Wise Salmon in Running River tells of the great cycle of life, and yes, at the end the super-magical Easter Bunny slyly appears and leaves the most wonderful egg of all!Eggs for the Hunting is a spring tale, a wonder tale, affirming the joy, humor and mystery of life.Product Identifiers
