Bunny's First Spring by Sally Lloyd-Jones is a charming Christian parable of Easter and the new hope that the season brings.
A bunny born in spring sees the world as green and new and full of hope. But as the seasons change, the bunny worries that the earth may be dying. In bestselling author's Sally Lloyd-Jones' latest picture book celebrating the Easter season and rebirth, nature speaks to the bunny, assuring him of something more.
Although there is no overtly religious content until the final page - which includes a paraphrased quotation from Martin Luther about God's promise of new life being revealed - Bunny's First Spring has a subtle subtext of rebirth that culminates in the joy of fresh beginning.
Award-winning artist David McPhail's whimsical illustrations reflect the beauty of the world around us as Lloyd-Jones' inspirational text prompts readers to celebrate the changing seasons and the miracle of nature's rebirth.
