Favorite characters and themes spring forth this season. The beloved little bunny counts up to 10 "hot-pink marshmallow chicks," hidden by the Easter Bunny in Max Counts His Chickens by Rosemary Wells-with sister Ruby's help, of course. Each page depicts the long-eared sibling making (usually) her discovery, along with the numeral that keeps track, and a line-up of the pink prizes-plus Max's messes along the way.
