The Happy Egg

A year ago I went looking for this book, which turned out to be long out of print. In fact, the very knowledgeable bookstore staff I spoke to doubted its very existence! The Carrot Seed is a beloved classic, but its close sibling The Happy Egg had been strangely forgotten. I'm glad to see it back.The two books are by the same husband-and-wife team, and share a natural kinship in their gentle rhythms, simple illustrations and surprisingly stirring, life-affirming conclusions. The Happy Egg is a book I can gladly read over and over, and over, to my toddler.

one of the cutest books I've seen i a while

Excellent book

This book was in great condition when I received it and was a good price. It was exactly what I expected! The happy Egg book made me very happy!

I read several reviews of this book and also saw that it was featured in a parenting magazine as a great book for toddlers. I insisted on getting it for my 2 1/2 year old son for Easter, and I searched everywhere for it. Waste. Of. Time.This book is so dull, and my son is not captivated by it at all. Half of the pages read "And he sat." "And he sat." "And he sat." Honestly, I could make up a story with so few words, drag it out longer, skip the illustrations, and save my money. The story is not a good one, and the illustrations did little to inspire my toddler. I will not be recommending this to anyone.

Very nice book. Its very simple. Good bed time story since its short and cute. My son loved it and he is almost 3.

It was just okay although it was highly rated. My 3 year old boy did not approve.

great!
