The Rotten Easter Egg

language ( April 16, 2019)
The Rotten Easter Egg

Just in time for Easter, this book embraces the concept as the old adage goes, “One man’s chicken is another man’s steak,” -but only referencing eggs here, with the central point that just because you don’t like something, doesn’t mean others won’t. It is a short and sweet book of about 20 pages which incorporates the following vocabulary enhancing words: rotten, intolerable, foul, scavenging, unsightly, dared, frightfully, gruesome, delight, creature, judge, cherish and claim.

The images are vibrantly colorful and appealing, compiled from a plethora of graphic artists for visual diversity. If your child loves Easter themed books, be sure to check out other theme related titles by author M.D. Johnson: The Day the Easter Bunny Caught the Flu, The Bunny with No Money.

The rotten egg was an intolerable sight.
It was foul,
It was smelly,
And it didn’t look very bright…

WHAT INSPIRED THIS BOOK?

Easter, and the idea of how children can be so selective when on an Easter egg hunt that they may abandon certain colored eggs because they don’t like the color, design or pattern… Perhaps they are missing out…

Please note all children’s books are written to enhance your child’s vocabulary. Advanced words should render the question, “What does that mean?” from your daughter or son. Images in books come from a multitude of graphic artists and photographers to add graphic diversity. Ages for children’s books range from 3 years of age to adult age, or grown-ups who are children at heart. Each story told offers a moral or bit of wisdom and is often told in poetic fashion.

The benefits of reading for children are many, and in support of this I’d like to showcase e-books for you and your child, whether they are an ardent reader or young enough to be read to, it’s important you or they do. If there are any children’s books you’d like to see written, especially for your child, please let me know. More children’s books are coming soon.
