Omiword, I wish the lighting had been better in this pic!  He looked so stinkin’ cute! This post contains The Easter Bunny’s Assistant Companion Pack,  which goes hand-in-hand with one of my new favorite Easter children’s books.

Becks is reading my newfound favorite Easter book – The Easter Bunny’s Assistant by Jan Thomas.  You probably know her other darling work, Rhyming Dust Bunnies.  Love it, right?!

So, anyway, The Easter Bunny’s Assisstant was recommended by a parent.  She’s a buyer for our local library and is coming to read this book to us on Friday morning.  We’re on Spring Break next week, so we’re having to cram a whole week’s worth of Easter stuff into ONE day!  Friday is going to be bizzzzzzzzzzzy.  If you haven’t discovered this book yet, it’s a hilarious read about The Easter Bunny and his assistant, Skunk, who gets really excited about dying eggs and then…well…does what skunks apparently do when they get excited.  A skart, maybe?  With a little boy (and a classroom full of kiddos) who are completely intrigued by bodily functions, this book is guaranteed to get the giggles going! { I bought my copy at our local bookstore for less than $12 for a hardback copy, and I promise your kiddos will quickly add it to their list of favs!}  Knowing that this parent was coming to read this story to my class, I made The Easter Bunny’s Assistant Companion Pack, which includes lots of fun activities to go with it and compiled it all into a $4 mini-unit I have for sale on TpT right now… I think before the parent arrives, we’re going to make these little sentence strip caps – featured below on Becks…

I hope you’ll check it out!  If anything, GO BUY THE BOOK!  So cute!!!! {PS.  I don’t even think words could describe my response to the comments on my post yesterday.  I’m going to offer you all a GREAT BIG GINORMOUS thank you, right now…but will elaborate more on my gratitude towards EACH ONE OF YOU who commented or emailed today with words of encouragement, advice, and love.  Really, it meant a WHOLE WHOLE lot.  I love my bloggy family of friends!}
