About this title

From the Author:

Why I wrote this book
When I was a little girl, I loved celebrating Easter. The night before had that charged excitement of wondering when the Easter Bunny was going to stop by our house. And the next morning there would be rabbit tracks leading from the kitchen door to the dining room table where our baskets sat spilling over with candy! I wrote The Night Before Easter for parents to read to their children to send them off to sleep with sweet dreams of jelly beans dancing in their heads.
