Midwest Book Review

The Golden Egg may not lend to repeated library use but it's perfect for parents and read-aloud situations: bright flaps invite youngster attention to what's hidden behind them as the story line tells of a duck who searches for a special golden egg. A fun Easter storybook for the very young.
