We’ve had The Polor Vortex and Juno, The Storm Of The Century Of The Entire History Of NYC EVER! (not).

It’s been frigid and freezing in New York City–and it was just such a winter a couple of year’s ago that inspired my brand new book.

(And I can hardly wait. It’s coming out tomorrow!)

I was walking, one day, through the Canyons of New York in what seemed an endless winter. And then I looked down.

A tiny impossibly green shoot was pushing up through the hard, icy ground.

And with it the words of Martin Luther broke through:

“Our Lord has written resurrection not in books alone—but in every leaf in springtime.”

And I had found my Easter Story.

It’s called: BUNNY’S FIRST SPRING.

Hope and Renewal are at the heart of things.
Things are not always as they seem.
It’s not what it looks like.
There is hope beyond the walls of the world.

And Spring is coming!
