After a harsh winter, Mousekin's springtime search for food brings him in contact with brightly colored eggs, a white rabbit, and other symbols of Easter.

Kindergarten-Grade 3 Forced out of his underground home by spring rains, Mousekin must find a new place to live while avoiding the animals who want to eat him. He investigates several kinds of birds' nests before finding one that is both empty and safely located in a tree branch. During his search he meets a pet rabbit and finds an Easter basket filled with eggs. Miller's clear and deftly executed watercolors show the pale fresh colors of a woodland spring and perfectly capture the animals, from a menacing owl to a rather bewildered-looking white rabbit. Despite occasionally awkward writing, she conveys, in a gentle way appropriate for young children, a sense of the forest animals' ongoing struggle for survival. As in her other ``Mousekin'' books (Prentice-Hall), the plot is plausible and the illustrations both beautiful and accurate. In her quiet, low-key way, Miller has created another book which should have enduring popularity. Jean Hammond Zimmerman, Willet School, South River, N.J.
