Review

As the rain pours down, Peppa Pig and her brother George go to bed dreaming of the fun time they will have in the morning jumping in the muddy puddles. When they wake up, they find there was so much rain there are no puddles to be found and every hill has become an island. When Granny and Grandpa Pig motor along in their boat, Peppa and George hop aboard for an adventure. While Peppa is a television character, readers who aren't familiar with the show will enjoy the adventures of Peppa and her family and friends. The simple story line and bright, digitally-created cartoon-like illustrations make the book appealing to young readers, most of whom surely enjoy stomping in puddles themselves. A discussion could follow about rain, puddles, mud, floods, islands, or handling disappointments and adverse conditions. There are other adventures of Peppa Pig that have been published in both hardcover and paperback.

Overall Book Score: good
