The First Easter

The First Easter by Alison Mitchell is a gently told Christian picture book that shares the Easter story in a way little ones can understand and families will want to return to each year. With warm, inviting storytelling and rich illustration, it’s ideal for reading aloud in the lead-up to Easter Sunday.

Set in the bustling city where Jesus travels to teach and bring a message of peace, the book guides young readers through the key moments of Holy Week with care and clarity, keeping the focus on love, hope and what Christians remember and celebrate at Easter.

Perfect for families, godparents and grandparents looking for an Easter gift book, and for anyone wanting a thoughtful introduction to faith for toddlers and preschoolers. A lovely choice for church communities, home traditions and bedtime reading.
