Reach for this book when your child starts noticing holiday decorations and asking why we do the strange things we do. It is the perfect antidote to the pressure of 'perfect' holiday traditions, offering a silly, secular perspective on the symbols of Easter. Through the eyes of adorable, confused puppies, the story explores how we make meaning out of new experiences. The book follows a group of high-energy dogs who discover an egg and try to figure out its purpose. Is it for hiding? Is it for art? Is it for breakfast? The arrival of a calm, bunny-ear-wearing bear provides a gentle resolution to their squabbles. It is a joyful, absurdist romp that celebrates curiosity and the fun of shared rituals without being heavy-handed or overly religious. Ideal for toddlers and preschoolers who love slapstick humor and animal antics.
