Is there anything as simple as an egg? Is there anything as complex?

"The Egg" by Britta Teckentrup is a beautifully illustrated children's book that explores the cycle of life through the story of a little bird watching over its egg. With stunning visuals and a touching narrative, this book is sure to captivate readers of all ages.

In Britta Teckentrup's hands, a scattering of broken egg shells become abstract art; a nest of unhatched eggs suggest the possibility and promise of life; studies of songbirds and nests are beautifully composed works of colour and line. A lovely meditation on the diversity of eggs, from a hummingbird’s to those of the extinct elephant bird, this magnificent book with 50 illustrations and 96 pages offers hours of lingering pleasure.

The perfect gift for Easter and beyond.

I bought one of each egg cup to go with the treat boards. They are so well made and go so well with the boards me and kids love them! We have gone through so many plastic and ceramic egg cups but I don't have to worry about these egg cups, built to last and withstand rough kids hands.

The items I purchased were of extremely high quality. I’ve no doubt they will become heirlooms passed down to the next generation. Thank you.
