Easter Bunny on the Loose! A Seek and Solve Mystery

Wendy Wax, illus. by Dave Garbot. Harper, $7.99 (32p) ISBN 978-0-06-223709-5

“Emergency in Easterville!” In this interactive seek-and-find companion to Bruce Hale’s Santa on the Loose, also illustrated by Garbot, readers help the Easter Bunny figure out who stole his golden egg. To do so, they must scour the spreads to locate the Easter Bunny, no small task since Easterville is jam-packed with bunnies, birds, eggs, children, flowers, and more (including the occasional Santa). By matching each clue the Easter Bunny finds with the suspects who appear at the beginning of the story, readers can narrow down the list. After all the real-life eggs have been found on Easter morning, kids who want more to search for should be engrossed by this light mystery. Ages 4–8. (Feb.)
