I received a free ARC from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
This was adorable book with cute characters. The pictures were bright and colorful and the story was fun.
My son and I enjoyed reading this. The story was simple and the illustrations were really bright and fun.
Ruth Wielockx has written a fun family book about Easter Time. Luke and Lottie, It’s Easter follows the children on an Easter egg hunt at a farm. The whole family gets involved. Dad in his bunny costume, along with Luke and Lottie.
At the farm, readers can follow the two children as they hunt for colorful Easter eggs among the chickens and bunnies. There are even ideas about decorating with the painted Easter eggs.
The writing is simple, yet descriptive. Children can easily use their imaginations and put themselves on the farm with Luke and Lottie. The illustrations will make readers smile. They are bright and cheery, with a surprising amount of detail.
Luke and Lottie, It’s Easter is a book for families to read together. The story reminds readers how important it is to spend time together on the holiday as a family. It also briefly highlights on the differences between siblings. “Lottie paints her egg very carefully. Luke likes to use the feathers.”
Their decorated eggs may look different, but the brother and sister decorated them together.
When it’s Easter time and parents are looking for a children’s book, Luke and Lottie, It’s Easter Time will remind everyone reading it how important it is to spend time together.
The download wasn’t correct and the pages were not in order. What I could see, though, looked like a good Easter story. Decorating eggs, making an Easter tree, dressing up and going to the farm. I really liked the illustrations. They are adorable and fun. I have enjoyed other Luke and Lottie books so anticipate that this one is just as good.
I received an ARC from Clavis Publishing through NetGalley. This in no way affects my opinion or review of this book. I am voluntarily submitting this review and am under no obligation to do so
Was just ok for me. Not my favorite, but at least it was to the point and didn't ramble on. I loved the illustrations but I was really hoping for a bit more! A nice moral or something to close off? It was missing so many elements
I received an advanced reader copy of this book to read in exchange for an honest review via netgalley and the publishers.
This is a cute picture book about twin siblings Luke and Lottie and their Easter day egg hunt at a farm.
I found the pictures to be delightful and the story to be simple but delightful for little readers to share with a parent or guardian over Easter.
A cute little Easter story. Not my favorite, but cute and to the point. I feel like there wasn't really a moral to this story. Great illustrations though!
This is a sweet book that would make a great addition to any Easter basket.
My daughter and I enjoyed reading it together. It is short and simple. We hadn't read any other Luke and Lottie books, so we didn't have any connection to the characters yet it was sweet enough.
I generally wouldn't choose book about Easter with such extravagant celebrations (they all dress up in bunny costumes) mainly because i don't want my 5 year old asking for a bunny costume. Also, this book has no mention of Jesus or the reason we celebrate Easter. For families without a Christian faith who still want to celebrate Easter in some way, this may be a great option for you!
I couldn’t help but focus on while reading this picture book was the illustrations. The plot was simple enough to follow alone, but the illustrations really brought the story to life. . The illustrations were beautifully done and held a lot of detail. I really enjoyed this picture book, I would buy it for my nephew and read it with him around Easter.
Luke and Lottie celebrate easter with a visit to the farm for an easter egg hunt. This is something we do at Easter out in the backyard, so my granddaughter was familiar with this activity. She liked that they were with other kids and that they dressed up in costumes. I liked that the whole family got involved and even daddy was in a costume. There was not a lot to talk about with this book, except we discussed that it is not a good idea to go into a chicken coop or yard without an adult and that they should not touch or break open chicken eggs. There was not a lot to this story but it was cute. Thies was not one that I was asked to read again, so probably not one I would buy for the family library.
Zero substance in here, but it doesn't seem to matter.
The pictures are vibrant, the story is adorable and the kids are funny!
This is bound to be a cute Easter read for any tiny human.
Thanks a bunches to NetGalley and Clavis Publishing for my DRC.
The synopsis says this is "a sweet and recognizable story". It is sweet... but it's not recognizable, at least not to North American audiences. The book was apparently first published in Dutch in Belgium and the Netherlands, and it's obvious that they have some different Easter traditions. The egg hunt seems to be a strange mixture of Easter and Halloween (everybody dresses up in Easter-themed costumes and traipses through animal enclosures to find chocolate eggs), and rather than dyeing eggs, the kids paint them and stick feathers on them.
If you go into it understanding that it's not going to show a traditional North American Easter celebration, it'll probably work a little better. The illustrations are cute (maybe a little too cute... but for little kids, it's fine) and the writing isn't bad.
This book could be used as a good introduction to different Easter customs... and may even be the inspiration for some new traditions of your own!
This book was both adoreable and sweet. The illustrations were bright and eye catching. My grandaughter and I both enjoyed reading about Luke and Lottie's little easter adventure. She begs to hear at least once a night since we received it.

I received a copy of this arc from NetGalley for an honest review. Luke and Lottie is a simple book with very simple text for kids about Easter.
What a fun book for Easter! Lottie and Luke have an amazing adventure on a farm for their Easter holiday. They wear cute costumes, find eggs, and even decorate an Easter tree. The illustrations are bright and fun and the story was warm and fuzzy. There was no religious theme in the book so that could appeal to some parents. I don’t think this is a great book for beginner readers as majority of the words were complex and had harder phonics. This is a great book for level one or two readers or children who love to listen to someone read to them.
This was a cute children's book featuring Easter as the topic. Luke and Lottie are brother and sister, and are so excited to go easter egg hunting at the farm! Dad wears his bunny costume and so do Lottie and Luke. This was perfect for my 1st grader, she enjoyed the story and the illustrations. This is an easy-to-read book with a fun and understandable plot.
Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for this ARC in exchange for my honest review.
A very simple Easter story that is easy to read, with colourful illustrations that young children will enjoy.
A cute fun little book about the traditions of Easter. I love the twins and my 4 year old granddaughter adores it.
You can never have enough Easter books and the illustrations in this story are precious. An aspirational family story.
