E. Aster Bunnymund And The Warrior Eggs At The Earth's Core! (The Guardians) Read Free Books and Download eBooks
Don't miss The Rise of the Guardians, soon to be a major motion picture in theaters November 2012.Forget the bunny trail. E. Aster Bunnymund is on a warpath. In this second chapter book in William Joyce’s The Guardians series, sometimes you have to crack a few eggs. Pitch, the Nightmare King, and his Fearlings had been soundly driven back by Nicholas St. North and company in the first Guardians’ adventure. But now Pitch has disappeared completely—and out of sight does NOT make for out of mind. It seems certain that he’s plotting a particularly nefarious revenge, and the Guardians suspect he might have gone underground. But how can they find him there? Enter E. Aster Bunnymund, the only emissary of the fabled brotherhood of the Pookas—the league of philosophical warrior rabbits of imposing intellect and size. Highly skilled in martial arts (many of which he invented himself), Bunnymund is brilliant, logical, and a tunnel-digger extraordinaire. If the Guardians need paths near the Earth’s core, he’s their Pooka. He’s also armed with magnificent weapons of an oval-sort, and might just be able to help in the quest for the second piece of the Moonclipper.This second book in The Guardians series is about much more than fixing a few rotten eggs—it brings the Guardians one step closer to defeating Pitch!

My daughter read this and the other book for AR. She loved every one of them. It took her less than a week to read each one. It was great when she would run and tell me what was happening in the story. She can't wait for the next edition.
This is the 2nd in the Guardians of Childhood book and it's where we are introduced to the Pooka that will some day become the Easter Bunny. It's a great follow up to the first chapter book which features a swashbuckling santa claus (pre-santa claus). This is such an enjoyable and quick read, a great choice to read to your kid at bedtime and you will probably enjoy it just as much as they do! I highly recommend purchasing this and saving a spot on your shelves for it.
I watched the movie Rise of the Guardians and how can you not love an Aussie 6'1" Bunny with boomerangs who can take on the bad guys. The bunny in this book is a bit more serious and intellectual and while I enjoyed Hugh Jackman as the Easter Bunny in the movie, I do like the more serious and wise E Aster Bunnymund character in this book. He's truly a unique Easter Bunny and I love his obsession with Egg shapes - what a way to bring humor into an otherwise ancient/wise Bunny. Oh and the whole chocolate thing is awesome - don't want to spoil it for when you read it.
My children hang on every word and beg for more. We just finished Bunnymund last night and immediately started on Toothiana. I'm equally enthralled and enjoying the story. I even read ahead one night after they went to bed because I count wait to know what happened. These are fantastic books!!
You don't truly know the Easter bunny until you read this book. I have always been a fan of William Joyce's work as he writes the best fantasy stories. Highly recommended for moderate readers and the young to young at heart. "I believe I believe I believe" ;)
This is the second book in a very interesting series and contains some beautiful illustrations. Not at all how I ever imagined the bunny - not exactly the cute and cuddly character you see on all the cards and Easter promotions - but really very creative and interesting. My son loves it and I'm enjoying the series as well!
Further explanation of the characters of "Rise of the Guardians." The Easter Bunny isn't just a bunny with somehow gained sentience and magical powers (and an Australian accent, despite Australias issues with rabbits), but is actually a magical Pooka, a create you may be familiar with from the movie "Harvey." Ancient and powerful, Bunnymund isn't interested in the battles of Nicholas St. North and his associates.But he is totally into the egg he can collect from their bird friend.I think I actually enjoyed this book the most of the series. Bunnymund is a little callous, but does turn basically goodhearted by the end. And his list of accomplishments (including the creation of chocolate) is delightful, and vaguely reminds me of the Doctor.A good continuation of an already promising series.
