Spot's First Easter

Spot the puppy joins Helen the hippopotamus in a search for six hidden Easter eggs. Movable flaps conceal portions of the illustrations.

Helen, a hippo, is helping Spot with his first Easter egg hunt. They need to find six eggs, and so this lift-the-flap story becomes a counting game, in festive, streamer-bright hues. Because the baskets of "found" eggs almost never add up to the number uncovered so far, those seeking a strict counting book may have to go back and forth a couple of times to see what has transpired (the eggs are chocolate, so Spot and Helen are eating them along the way). But in spirit and style, this ingenuous offering is as close to the first Spot book as readers are likely to find in the series. Ages 1-6.
