The Grumpy Easter Bunny
As the title suggests, The Grumpy Easter Bunny by Justine Korman is about a grumpy Easter bunny Hopper who refuses to partake in the Easter duties that other bunnies do. Hopper does not exhibit the same enthusiasm as other rabbits’ for their Easter rounds and instead of hiding his share of goodies, he eats most of them himself.
The grumpy bunny that he is, Hopper grumbles about having to work all year making chocolate eggs, filling marshmallow chicks, and rolling thousands of jelly beans. Moreover there is the additional task of hopping all over the place delivering the goodies to children. But gradually Hopper discovers the true meaning of Easter and zealously participates in the bunny duties.
The book makes delightful reading for the colorful illustrations and Korman’s hilarious depiction of Hopper’s antics.
