Trying to find the name of an Easter Bunny themed kid's book.

I'm hunting down an Easter themed children's book for a friend...

My friend was telling me tonight of her search for a book she loved as a child. The theme was a family of rabbits, where the multitudes of young rabbits were all twins, and would be assigned various household tasks by their mother. They would all happily work together to achieve their goals, but one rabbit was not a twin, and had no brother or sister to work with.

This rabbit finally becomes the Easter bunny (hooray).

Anyway, my friend was not so much taken by the story as much as in love with the illustrations. If anyone can name this book and possibly even point to somewhere I can find a copy, I would be very grateful!

Best answer: It's absolutely the Country Bunny and the Little Gold Shoes, and it is a great book.

Response by poster: A quick followup to this, I bought the book for my friend and surprised her with it tonight. She was quite stunned - she had been looking for this book for something like 20 years but had never been able to find it. Yay AskMeFi!
