Amazon.co.uk Review "Each Peach Pear Plum. I spy Tom Thumb!" In this engaging, interactive book for the very young, familiar nursery-rhyme characters such as Mother Hubbard and Baby Bunting sneak their way into the gentle drawings. Even young children who might not know all the fairy-tale stars can find them lurking in the cupboard, on the stairs or deep in the woods. In the happy finale, the whole cast meets up for plum pie in the sun, where the little one on your lap will gleefully find everyone.
exquisite book -- a firm favouriteDecember 19, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This is a wonderful story that my daughter has loved since she was very young. At first she just enjoyed listening to the story but she is now progressing to spotting and naming different parts of the pictures (duck, baby, etc). And I know we've got plenty more life in this book as she starts to spot the different characters. The language (a big priority for me) is really well crafted, the story is light-hearted and enjoyable, and the illustrations are beautiful. Hugely recommended -- I regularly buy this book as part of a "new baby gift".
WonderfulDecember 4, 2008 Another one of the books that should be given to all new parents to share with their children. Wonderful rhyming and lovely pictures.
A favourite!November 6, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
My son has just turned 2 and this book has been a favourite for a few months. He enjoys looking for the 'hidden' characters and the reference to nursery rhyme characters etc.
A classicOctober 28, 2008 Both me and me toddler adore this book. Lovely pictures that provide excellent hide and seek involvement for toddlers, and sing song narrative that will engage and delight babies and toddlers alike. Peepo is also a gem - the Ahlbergs are genius!
Lovely and gentleAugust 3, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Such a lovely board book and in my opinion it's perfect for babies and toddlers of any age really. It's especially good for reading before a daytime nap (or any winding down time) as the beautiful rhymes and gentle illustrations can be quite soothing. My 2 year old daughter loves it and I highly recommend it. Buy it and you'll soon see...it will come out from the bookshelf time and time again.
