Personalised Easter gift

An Easter gift that doesn't melt: a story with your child as the hero

Easter means chocolate, and chocolate doesn't last long. A book in which your child hunts for eggs, follows a trail or meets a very busy hare is still there after the last egg.

Easter, and a book for the basket

In 2027, Easter Sunday falls on 28 March, and Easter Monday, 29 March, is a bank holiday in Ireland.12 Easter traditions are familiar: the chocolate egg hunt, hot cross buns on Good Friday, lamb or ham for the Easter meal. The Easter Bunny, by the way, owes more to popular culture than to Irish tradition.1

A book fits into the Easter basket next to the eggs and outlasts them. The story can pick up whatever your family does at Easter: the egg hunt in the garden, the visit to the grandparents, the first spring walk.

Brothers and sisters, cousins and grandparents can all be in the story: up to 5 characters. That makes the book a present for a whole family gathering, not just for one child.

You read the whole story for free before you decide. The eBook is ready about half an hour after you buy, even on Holy Saturday. The hardcover is delivered to 214 countries and territories, including the United Kingdom, Ireland, the United States and Canada; in Europe and North America it arrives in up to 13 working days after you approve the finished book. For Easter, order it a few weeks ahead.

Three story ideas

  • The Easter egg hunt goes wrong: the eggs have been hidden too well, and the child follows a trail of clues across the whole garden.
  • A very busy hare has lost his way, and the child helps him deliver everything in time.
  • The first warm day of spring, and a walk on which the child discovers something nobody else has noticed.
