　　When Katy discoversher grandmother's old hand-painted Easter eggs in the attic, sheinspires the renewal of a special tradition: the Easter egg tree!This quaint Caldecott Medal-winning story, written half a centuryago, will charm today's readers every bit as much as it did theirparents and grandparents. Influenced by Pennsylvania Dutch folk artand tradition, Katherine Milhous creates a lovely tale that willleave readers of all ages impatient to break out paint, dye, andbrushes to trim their own Easter egg tree. Muted hues of blue,brown, green, orange, and yellow are a welcome respite from thein-your-face vibrancy of contemporary illustrations, and createtheir own gentle radiance. Age-old designs such as the Bright andMorning Star, the Horn-blowing Rooster, the Cooing Dove, and thePomegranate decorate the borders and eggs, providing a sense ofdeep-rooted history and tradition. A beautiful sleeper of aclassic. (Ages 5 and older) --Emilie Coulter
