Great Book!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
This book was so cute! It reminded me so much of me and my one sister. I used to always find her candy and sneak a piece or two (she took forever to eat hers!). My sisters and I all love each other and we're extremely close. Kids will be kids and have their little antics--that's what gives us times to look back on. It is also what makes us so close to each other. This book is one we read every single day during the Easter Season!
My kids love this book

The best part about this book is realizing -- after several readings -- how Ruby, the older sister, tries to manipulate her little brother by telling him he has to win an egg hunt to win the chocolate chicken. But of course, big sister gets humbled (and her own chocolate chicken) in the end.This book is my kids' favorite Max and Ruby book, but they are all good, especially Bunny Cakes.
poor Ruby..

..thinks her younger brother has stolen the only chocolate chicken!! I can imagine little brothers acting just like Max. Another my daughter loves to have read to her.

I absolutely love this book. I am in school to be a teacher and found this book while doing a project and read it ten times. I laugh out loud each time I read it, it just gets better and better.
A Toddler's Kind of Easter Egg Hunt
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
My children asked me to read Max's Chocolate Chicken to them over and over. Max being Max, and a toddler to boot,charms his way out of trouble again. I asked my children if what Max did was fair. They didn't think so, but understood that simple toddler urge to get that candy chicken and gobble it down. I plan to send a copy to my 45-year-old sister as a reminder of all the chocolate chickens we shared as kids.
