From the
heart of two St. Louis sisters, comes a new story of the
very first Easter Bunny. Easter Bunny’s Amazing Day
introduces young children everywhere to a fearful bunny
who has an amazing experience on the first Easter
morning that changes him forever. In his own words, the
Bunny shares his story; a tale of action, adventure,
miracles and great love—all beautifully illustrated by
Saint Louis artist, Jonathan Sundy.
The response to the tale so far has been remarkable. As it turns out- this book is appealing to the heart of the child of any age. Adults are saying, “I never teared up before reading a children’s book.” A mother writes, “My children were immediately drawn into this story by the beautiful and endearing illustrations. This narrative is a wonderful way to communicate the religious meaning of Easter through our cultural idea of the Easter Bunny. It will be a favorite in our house for years to come!” An older man with some dementia is now reading the book two to three times a day because it calms him. Pre-school and elementary teachers love the book themselves and are grateful to finally have this unique story of the first Easter that includes everyone’s favorite bunny. Even a ten year old boy commented, “This is a good book.”

First time authors, Carol Benoist and Cathy Gilmore are delighted! They set out to write a simple story, but they just might be transforming the way that young children experience Easter. For every child who is stuffing his or her cheeks with jelly beans and chocolate bunny ears, it’s as if the sisters lean in to whisper, “But wait, there’s more…” Easter Bunny’s Amazing Day is a gift to us all.
