Perhaps most disappointing is that Pete Oswald, the illustrator of the prior books, illustrated only the cover of this one. Only when you turn to the title page do you see the listed illustrator for the rest of the book. I felt like I'd been suckered into a cash grab. This is the only time I've ever been annoyed enough with an Amazon book to go through the effort of returning it. :(
Shel, an egg, for some reason was left behind in the carton when the other 11 went off to play games ...and eventually hide in the store. At the beginning she was content to be by herself as she enjoyed the peace and quiet. But, as time went on, her stress level increased when the others didn't come back at lunch. Decisions, decisions, decisions...Should Shel go or stay?
The younger ones will be able to recognize items sold in the store including potatoes, tomatoes, avocados...a teaching lesson for the parents in the event the children are not familiar with these items.
I really liked that all of the eggs helped each other look for Meg, the missing one...A clue was followed and teamwork helped .... It is always so nice to play with friends, isn't it?
All of the eggs had cute names, too.. thought that was a cute addition to the text. 'Indeed' an outstanding book...
Most highly recommended ...an enjoyable read with lessons throughout the text.
If you’ve read The Good Egg and understand how Shel was, then you would understand the message in this book. Read it yourself and see. And to the reviewer, you are entitled to your own opinion of the book but at least be truthful about its contents.
This is such a cute story where the eggs escape for a morning of fun, except Shel. Shel decides he would like to stay back and enjoy the peace and quiet. Yet, when the gang doesn’t return on time, it’s Shel who goes looking for everybody!

This particular one is a perfect gift for Easter. It comes with stickers to decorate the eggs that you color.
A big bunch of gratitude to Amazon for their outstanding customer service and getting me this book on time :)
THANK YOU!

The Great Eggscape was an unemotional story without the character development we’ve found in the rest of the series.
Such a let down.
