Product Description
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.

Synopsis
In this book, children can spy characters hiding in the pictures. A poem on each page gives the clue as to what is hiding in the picture opposite. Many well-known nursery characters are included so that young children can follow the rhymes. It was the winner of the Kate Greenaway Medal in 1978.

5.0 out of 5 stars fantastic, catchy and an instant favourite, 25 Sep 2000
This was given to our 2 year old and within days became a favourite (had to go to bed with it, take it in the car etc). The catchy words and detailed pictures which invite exploration make it a book with many layers. With so many references to other childhood rhymes and stories it ensures parents never get bored either.

5.0 out of 5 stars Simply excellent, 16 Jul 2006
My daughter who is now 2 loved Peepo! by the same authors when she was 1 and now at 2 loves Each Peach Pear Plum. In fact, these continue to be her favourite books and though I introduce other titles she still goes back to these again and again. What's great is their simplicity, the beautiful, slightly old-fashioned illustrations and the rhyming story which my daughter finds she can repeat. In a country where we have limited access to books these really were a find. My only additional recommendation would be to buy the hardbacks - they last longer.

5.0 out of 5 stars Read this as a child, 14 Sep 2006
By S. Greaves (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I read this book when I was in nursery school and 20 years on I still love it, this is one that my children will read. The rhyme is simple yet effective, the pictures are beautiful to look at and enjoyable as you follow the story and find the characters. A must have in every family.

2.0 out of 5 stars amazing book let down by presentation
As all the other reviews say, this is an out and out classic children's book - a must have.
This copy, however, is dreadful. Read more
