Each Peach Pear Plum by Janet and Allan Ahlberg (Board Book)

About the Book

Each Peach Pear Plum.
I spy Tom Thumb!
Tom Thumb in the cupboard
I spy Mother Hubbard.

Mother Hubbard down the cellar
I spy Cinderella.
Cinderalla on the stairs
I spy the Three Bears.

And on it goes, inviting your child's little eye to play 'I spy' - looking of familiar nursery rhyme characters hiding in the pictures. A poem on each page gives the clue as to what is hiding in the picture opposite. Engaging and interactive, your little one will want to "read" this gleeful book over and over again. Winner of the Kate Greenaway Medal in 1978 and American Library Association Notable Book.

Benefits

Reading to your child regularly is one of the best gifts you can ever give. It will instill a love for learning, build a foundation for scholastic and lifelong success, and help develop a lasting bond between child and parent. It is never too early to start. According to the Institute of Medicine National Research Council, "Early experiences clearly influence brain development, but a disproportionate focus on birth to three begins too late and ends too soon."

It is important then to surround young children with books, alphabet blocks, rhymes, other words and sounds that encourage word exploration. It is through repeated and sustained exposure that children expand their vocabulary, strengthen their communications skills, and deepen their comprehension about themselves, others, and the world around them.
