The Perfect Book to add to Your Kids’ Easter Basket (And Yes—I Wrote It!)

As a nanny and an author of children’s books, I’ve know how magical storytime can be—especially around the holidays. There’s something extra special about snuggling together with a good book that brings a little fun, a little learning, and a lot of bonding. That’s exactly what I had in mind when I wrote Hoppy & Prickles’ Easter Day, a sweet and simple springtime story that kids absolutely love. If you’re looking for a meaningful Easter read for your little one, this might just be the perfect fit.
About the Book
Hoppy & Prickles’ Easter Day follows two adorable friends—a cheerful rabbit and a curious little hedgehog—as they spend Easter day doing fun and thoughtful activities together. From helping with chores and decorating eggs to playing outside and preparing for the big Easter egg hunt, each part of their day is filled with gentle lessons about kindness, teamwork, and learning through play.
I wrote this book with the little ones I’ve cared for in mind—children who light up when a story feels both familiar and exciting. The characters mirror the sweet dynamics I see every day: one eager to teach, the other eager to learn. And just like real life, the magic is in the little moments.
Why Parents Will Love It
This isn’t just a cute holiday book—it’s a gentle tool for connection, learning, and slowing down together. Hoppy & Prickles’ Easter Day is designed for little hands and short attention spans, with 25 full-color pages in a handy 6×9 size. The story is simple enough for toddlers to follow, but meaningful enough to spark thoughtful conversation with preschoolers and early readers.
You’ll love how it weaves in everyday moments—like helping with chores, playing outside, and sharing with friends—while encouraging curiosity, patience, and gratitude. It’s a sweet reminder that some of the best Easter memories happen before the egg hunt even begins.
