Dubose Heyward's classic was one of my favorites when I was Ivy's age. The illustrations are so lovely, and the story itself is heartwarming. A brown country bunny had always dreamed of being one of the five Easter Bunnies. However, she grew up to have 21 children and was so busy she felt her dream would never come true. She raised each of the babies to learn a specific chore to help the household run smoothly - I think this is Ivy's favorite part.
One day she took the bunnies to see the new Easter Bunny be chosen. What happens next will have to be found out when you read The Country Bunny and the Little Gold Shoes.
