Seeing the Joy of Easter

Based on a true story

1. I like the smell of flowers!

   They are so pretty!

2. Is everyone excited for Easter?

   Sort of.

   Not really.

3. I thought you two enjoyed holidays.

   We do! My favorite holiday is Christmas.

   It’s my favorite too! I love getting presents.

4. Why aren’t you excited for Easter?

   Easter is a sad day. It’s about when Jesus died.

5. Do you remember what happened on Easter Sunday?

6. I know! Jesus came back alive!

   And we can come back alive too.

7. That’s right. Easter is a happy holiday when we celebrate Jesus’s Resurrection.

   Me too.
