About the story: The Egg Tree was written and illustrated (1951 Caldecott Medal) by Katherine Milhous. The book “The egg tree” tells the history of two children named Katy and Carl, they are going to their grandmothers farm in Red Hills, Pennsylvania, this is the first time the children have the opportunity to spend Easter with their relatives from this part of the country, so they get to meet four of their cousins, the next morning the children wake up early to participate on the Easter egg hunt. Katy seems to have some trouble finding the eggs in this new and unexplored environment, so she decides to explore inside the house, in the attic looking around Katy finds six beautifully painted eggs that she takes to her grandmother immediately, the grandmother express her joy by saying “Katy may not have found the most eggs, but she found the most beautiful eggs”. So then the grandmother decides to decorated a tree with the eggs using them as a kind of ornament, all the kids get inspired because of Katy’s discovery and the grandmother’s joy so they all decided to put special emphasis on their own decoration of the eggs and they decorated a large tree, and the next year one that was even larger.
