Evoking a time gone by, these two simply told, delicately illustrated volumes celebrate holiday pleasures. In Easter, a little girl notices all the signs that Easter is near--dress hemming, hot cross buns, and a dream about rabbits and ducklings. In Pumpkin, Sylvie Ann finds a perfect jack-o'-lantern pumpkin in the field, but getting it home for carving proves to be an adventure.
