Favorite Easter Books for Preschoolers

By Karen Brown


Sometimes the Easter story can be a hard one to share with preschoolers. The story of Jesus’ death and resurrection is a heavy topic for little ones. The following books explain the celebration of Easter through simple words and pictures and are well-loved this time of year.


Here are a few of our favorites:

The Story of Easter by Patricia Pingry - this book tells the story of the first Easter and why we celebrate it today. It has just enough words and is perfect for toddlers and preschoolers.

Tell Me the Easter Story by Joni Walker - this book does a wonderful job of marrying the Christian celebration of Easter with more secular traditions like dying eggs and Easter baskets.

My Easter Basket and the True Story of Easter by Mary Manz Simon - this Easter basket shaped book has a fun rhyming format and bright, glitter covered pages the kids love.
