The First Easter Day

by Jill Roman Lord, kimberley barnes (Illustrator)

What would it have been like to be present on Easter Day? This sweet board book helps children imagine just that. As the young narrators consider various perspectives on the Resurrection--from a little bee buzzing with excitement to a bunny hopping in delight to the sun shining happily down on the newly-resurrected Jesus--children will be able to feel the infectious joy of the first Easter morning. Charmingly illustrated, this book is a great way to introduce children to the good news of Easter.

This is a great Easter board book for the target toddler audience. Rhyming prose that is fun to read. Animals aplenty. A joyful, celebratory tone. And a 100% focus on Jesus. Nothing emotionally stirring or doctrinally deep, but that’s not the point of a board book, so I like that it stays in its lane and does what it intended to do and does it well.
