"Petook the rooster meets Jesus when the boy stops in the chicken yard on his way to Jerusalem. Years later, Petook sees Jesus die for the salvation of the world on distant Calvary. He crows with joy on Easter Sunday at the birth of a new chick that coincides with the Resurrection. Caryll Houselander's artful storytelling and Tomie dePaola's delightful illustrations will invite young readers to enter into the mystery of new life."--Back cover
