Editorial Reviews

Publishers Weekly
Tasha Tudor's 1941 A Tale for Easter is handsomely reissued in a seven-inch-square format. Sentimental yet child-friendly, the book uses a second-person narration to evoke the pleasures of Easter as experienced in a long-ago rural idyll. "On Saturday you go and ask the chickens to lay you plenty of Easter eggs," writes Tudor; a watercolor decoration of a plump hen on its nest faces a page showing an angelic girl in bonnet, frock, apron and pantaloons slightly bent over in conversation with three chickens. The girl dreams of a "wee fawn," "rabbits smoothing their sleek coats" and lambs cavorting among buttercups. ( Feb.) Copyright 2001 Cahners Business Information.

Children's Literature
You can guess when Easter is near when Mama "makes you stand still while she fits a new dress on you" and when she makes hot cross buns on Good Friday. If you have been good all year, "you will dream the loveliest dreams" the night before Easter and Tudor describes a fantasy in which the young girl rides into the air on the back of a fawn. This nostalgic look back at a rural childhood in the early to mid-twentieth century is sweet and gentle. Tudor's illustrations of bunnies, little mice, lambs and ducklings (always as a twosome) are very appealing. This is for a child who appreciates looking at nature in a quiet tale. 2004 (orig. 1941), Aladdin Paperbacks/Simon & Schuster, Ages 4 to 7.
—Sharon Salluzzo
