Rhyming text and colorful plastic eggs attached on each page trace the disappearance of the eggs one at a time as they hatch to reveal a bird of the same color inside. This description may be from another edition of this product.
This book is undoubtedly entertaining for little ones. It is attractive and colorful and beautifully written to capture their attention. A great way for chidren to learn about numbers and order.
An Absolute Gem

This is such a wonderful toddler/preschool book. It teaches colors and counting, it comes in a nice heavy binding, the eggs are 3D (making for a fun tactile addition), the rhymes are tight and a blast to read aloud, and the illustrations are just beautiful.
Unique, Fun & Educational!

Review by Sherry North, Author, Because You Are My Baby This is a clever book that combines a unique novelty element (plastic eggs on every page) with simple, rhyming text that is a pleasure to read aloud. As other reviewers have pointed out, kids love counting the eggs on each page, so it's a great introduction to counting and also subtraction - there is one less egg on each page. My son enjoyed this book when he was 2 and he still likes it now that he is 4.
This is our toddler's favorite book

Grandma gave this book to our son for Easter -- he was 10 months old at the time. This has been one of the only books that he will sit through from the start to finish. It is his absolute favorite. He loves the colors and the eggs and sticking his fingers in the holes. He's 14 months now and still loves it. A great first book for baby!
Another wonderful book by Jean Marzollo

We love Jean Marzollo's books, and this one is a favorite of my son (two years old). He loves to hear the rhymes and follow the rhythym of the book, as well as watch the eggs turn into birds.Thumbs up. :)
