On Easter Monday, Mr. Bunny is napping in his workshop. In the weeks leading up to the holiday, he painted so many Easter eggs that he now needs to rest. And he doesn't want to paint anymore. But then, almost by chance, he paints an egg, and this egg is special, as the chickens that visit him soon realize, and they should know. Mr. Bunny is now in a painting frenzy; he always starts by drawing an egg, and since eggs always have something special inside, something wonderful comes out of it. Soon, all the animals are lining up at Mr. Bunny's to get painted.

With this truly funny, colorful book, children are subtly introduced to painting, as every child can draw an egg-shaped circle, and filling it in is also very easy, as Mr. Bunny tirelessly shows us.
