He devours everything in his Easter basket except for a yellow marshmallow chick that reminds him of his favorite blanket. Owen cares for the chewy confection, even placing it on the mantle to watch over him at bedtime. With full-color illustrations.

Industry Reviews "This little work is begging to be nestled among the pastel grasses of any Easter basket, but it does one better than any chocolate rabbit: it can be enjoyed over and over again." Kirkus Reviews (12/01/2001)
"As usual, Henkes' jaunty illustrations imbue his mouse characters with distinctive personality, clearly sen here in scenes of Owen joyfully bouncing at the sight of his full Easter Basket and gently playing with the marshmallow chick." Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books - Jeannette M. Hulick (02/01/2002)
