Some family traditions we carry with us from childhood into our adult lives. The memories are stored in the very depth of our souls. As children it did not matter ones' religion, race, or social status; holidays may be celebrated in different ways, but we have that common thread; we celebrate with our loved ones and create memories that last a lifetime.
Easter is one of the holidays that may take on a different name depending on religion, place of residence, or ethnic culture, but the traditional celebrations are similar.
Such is the tradition with the writer's family. Maria Hoskins recalls how fun, exciting, and special Easter preparation and Easter Sunday activities were during her childhood, especially at her Grandmother's house. Maria hopes each reader will enjoy her Easter story and recall those moments when things like finding a basket of colored and candy eggs felt and tasted like there was nothing else better in the whole wide world.

Maria Hoskins offers readers a vivid portrait of Easter through the eyes of one little girl who happily embraces the rhythm of her family's traditions around this most important of days in the Christian year, the Day of Resurrection. Many Christian families will relate to the character's delight in and anticipation of both the secular and sacred, including buying new clothes and shoes for church and dying and hunting Easter eggs, as well as the concluding remembrance that the Resurrection of Christ is, ultimately, the heart of Christian hope and joy. Accompanied by beautiful illustrations, this children's book offers a way for parents and kids to connect during a busy season and to recall the past, celebrate the present, and prompt children's questions about Christian faith and living. Rev. Betsy Singleton Snyder, United Methodist Pastor and author, Stepping on Cheerios: Finding God in the Chaos and Clutter of Life, Abingdon Press, 2017 Maria's heart-warming Easter Story encouraged me to reflect fond memories of my childhood during the spring as my family anxiously awaited the events of Easter.
