Minerva Louise

My grandson enjoyed this book as much as all his Menerva Louise books. He's been having them read to him since he was about 2 and now he's almost eight and still reads them. They make him laugh.

Cute, Clever and Reasonably Fun Easter Story

"Minerva Louise and the Colorful Eggs" features a hen who loves the springtime. She loves all the beautiful colors, the blooming of trees and the farmers on her farm. What she can't understand is the sudden appearance of brightly colored eggs in places she wouldn't expect to see them. Where did they come from? Why has their mother left them there? Are they in danger? Readers will know where these eggs are coming from, and so do her fellow hens, but Minerva is clueless. All she knows is that there are eggs that apparently need caring for. A cute story with simple but brightly colorful illustrations fit for the season. Happy Easter!
