The Golden Egg Book Worksheets

by Margaret Wise Brown

Lexile AD470L · ATOS 2.2

A little bunny who is all alone finds an egg and hears something moving inside. Could it be a little boy, another bunny, an elephant or a mouse? He shakes it, pushes it, jumps on it, throws nuts at it and rolls it down a hill, but the egg will not break, so he sits very still to watch and listen. Margaret Wise Brown's 1947 springtime classic, with Leonard Weisgard's flower-filled pages, is a gentle Easter read-aloud about wondering and waiting.
