Brilliant Lucy Cousins has created a fabulous new book which is full of holes! The young woodpecker is taught to peck by its father. The only trouble is…once it has learnt to peck a hole, it just can’t stop! There are holes in everything and young readers will love to explore them with their little fingers while they laugh at the ridiculous places the woodpecker has pecked. ~ Julia Eccleshare
The stunning Peck Peck Peck from multi-award-winning Lucy Cousins is now available as a board book, with colour so exuberant it leaps right off the page. Today my daddy said to me, It's time you learnt to peck a tree. Little Woodpecker has just learnt how to peck and ooh! yippee! what fun it is! Off he goes, on his first big pecking adventure, and he peck, peck, pecks his little heart out. He pecks the hat and then the mat, the tennis racket AND the jacket...just LOOK at all the holes he has made!
Comical, contemporary and original, this bouncy read-aloud book is beautifully illustrated and will capture a little one's attention with the tactile holes on every page!
This book has everything: Startling colours! Wonderful rhyme! Silly humour! HOLES!! Zoe Toft, Playing by the Book.
