Picture Books

Comical and original, this vivacious picture book from the creator of Maisy features a lovable new character -- and a novelty element that's a hole lot of fun. "Today my daddy said to me, "It's time you learned to peck a tree."" Little woodpecker has just learned to peck. Yippee! He's having so much fun that he peck-peck-pecks right through a door and has a go at everything on the other side, from the hat to the mat, the racket to the jacket, the teddy bear to a book called Jane Eyre. Children will be drawn to the young bird's exuberance at learning a new skill -- and ready to snuggle along at day's end for a night of sweet dreams.
