Synopsis

When Santa gets knocked out by a toy train, there's no telling what will become of Christmas. But when Easter Bunny shows up to help, faster than you can say "jack rabbit," Christmas is sure to carry on like normal...or will it?

Join the Easter Bunny and the eight smartest reindeers this side of the North Pole on their quest to start the sleigh in the right direction, to put all the presents under the proper trees, and to keep the old bunny from getting stuck in a chimney -- all before sunrise!

Acclaimed artist Derek Anderson has stuffed this Christmas stocking of a book with oodles of adorable artwork, heaps of holiday humor, and enough spirit to last the whole year through.

Reviews

Grade 1-3–A last-minute accident keeps Santa from doing his job, so Mrs. Claus calls the only other figure capable of making the round-the-world trip in a night: the Easter Bunny. But the substitute has a hard time. He feeds the fussy reindeer jellybeans instead of candy canes and wants carrot cake instead of milk and cookies. He gets cold, and doesn't understand Santa's instructions on where to put the presents. The reindeer finally understand he's trying to help, not to replace, Santa, and with their assistance, the job is completed. Some children will enjoy the idea of the Easter Bunny helping at the wrong holiday, as well as the visual jokes in the bright watercolor illustrations, but this is an additional purchase because of the predictable story and lackluster writing.–Lisa Falk, Los Angeles Public Library
