Webster鈥檚 Corners Elementary teacher-librarian Lindsay Lane recommends by Jory John for Easter.
In honour of Easter eggs everywhere, I recommend The Good Egg by Jory John, the author of the popular book The Bad Seed. This delightful story follows a good egg surrounded by others who behave badly. The good egg feels so much pressure to be perfect that he starts cracking under the strain. Through his journey, he learns the importance of balance and self-acceptance, realizing that it’s okay to be imperfect.听
The Good Egg is an excellent choice for anyone seeking a meaningful and engaging book to share with children. The illustrations by Pete Oswald are cute, vibrant, and engaging, adding an extra layer of appeal to the story. The story encourages discussions about perfectionism, self-acceptance, and the importance of balance in life. It’s a delightful read that will resonate with people of all ages.听
Whether you’re looking for a bedtime story or a book to spark meaningful conversations, The Good Egg is a fantastic choice. Its positive messages and engaging visuals make it a must-read for the season!聽
