<div dir="ltr">Thanks for your input everyone. Below a few comments I've pasted a new version incorporating most of your advice. I don't think I missed anything!<br><br>re: yIr instead of Sop:<div>This is weird in the book. Who eats Easter eggs, first of all? Even so, the image on the page shows a child eating either a live yellow bird or (more likely) candy like a "Peep" (which is bird-shaped), not one of the eggs. Thus I chose yIr because I thought it fit better, and one of the reasons I want to use books like these is because of the visual cues they give -- but this particular cue is misleading. Call it "An Interpretation of Five Little Bunnies by Dan Yaccarino."<br><br>And,<div><br></div><div>re: ghunchu'wI':<br>"<span style="font-size:12.8px">Are {ngIq QIm nguv} and {Hoch QIm nuv} singular?
