Pick a perfect egg / Patricia Toht ; illustrated by Jarvis.
When spring arrives, it's time to visit the farm to pickout some eggs, perfect for decorating. Bring your eggs home, taking care not to crack them, and find a pot big enough to fit them all. While the eggs are cooling and drying, get ready for some dyeing! Then on Easter morning, fling open your door and search for eggs of a different kind, filled with foil-wrapped chocolate, spinning tops, and jelly beans. And those perfect eggs you dyed the day before? They are no longer just eggs, of course: they're Easter eggs!
