Top Picks: Awesome Easter Books for Baby + Toddler + Young Kid
TOP PICK: The Complete Adventures of Peter Rabbit
$23.23
If you buy only one book for your young kids this Easter, I highly recommend this one. I have completed this series with my kids once before, reading one chapter to them each night. And I have just started this up again, since they are now two years older.
This wonderful collection brings together the four original Beatirx Potter stories which feature the mischievous little rabbit: The Tale of Peter Rabbit, The Tale of Benjamin Bunny, The Tale of the Flopsy Bunnies and the Tale of Mr Tod. Peter Rabbit and his cousin, Benjamin Bunny, along with their extensive family.
