I came upon this author's work a few months ago. Let me tell you...Uncle Tommy has scored big points giving a couple of her books as gifts to little ones (including The Easter Chicken.) The books have entertaining stories with very colorful pages that kids love. They've been very well received by the parents, too.
A colorfully illustrated story that builds character...

This is the poetic tale of a chicken, who feeling unappreciated,decides that she can do it all. For years she has laid the eggs but the bunny has gotten the glory. When confronted with the chicken's plan, the bunny offers a warning. Undaunted the chicken procedes with zeal. Illustrator, Emma Overman, has captured the chicken's emotions of pride, longing, joy and frustration. The story by Lisa Funari Willever and Lorraine Funari has been useful as I work with small groups of children who are learning the skills of team work. As a school psychologist, I often use stories to introduce an idea or a skill. The Easter Chicken, with its colorful illustrations and character building lesson has been added to my library.
A truly delightful, "interactive" picturebook

Bright and colorfully illustrated by Emma Ovreman, Lisa and Lorraine Funari's The Easter Chicken tales the tale of a chicken who becomes envious of the Eater Bunny's fame. Overcome by jealousy, she hastily fires the Easter Bunny and decides that she will handle Easter by herself. But the job is too much work for just one chicken! She quickly realizes that everyone has certain talents and that working as a team is the best way to work. Two pages of text designated "Special Guest Young Author & Illustrator Section" have been specifically reserved for the express purpose of publishing the reader's own work making The Easter Chicken a truly delightful, "interactive" picturebook.
