Babyliography XXXIX

Unknown, Peppa Pig: My Peppa Adventure

2022 / Library book / 32 pages / UK

***

A very nice idea for an early, minimally-interactive book (presumably nicked, based on their track record). Lots of decisions amounting to nothing of consequence, she'll be on the Lone Wolfs in no time.

A bit soon for another sextet, but I've had enough of the last one since reading the back half became part of her bedtime routine EVERY SINGLE NIGHT. (This has remained unchanged, of course). This was also the only remaining omnibus without overlap, so I thought I might as well get it out of the way, as is best for undesirable obligations.


P. D. Eastman, Go, Dog. Go!: P. D. Eastman's Book of Things That Go

1961 (1997 abridgement) / Ebook / 24 pages / USA

***

Apparently a severe abridgement of the celebrated classic, we read it through enough times in a row to make up for it.


Kevin Henkes, Waiting

2015 / Ebook / 32 pages / USA

The picture book equivalent of a gentle music box. Likely to be favoured in the rotation for the therapeutic benefits.

She enjoyed the interactivity, but it would've been better with optional routes for little delinquents who want to defy authority. As it is, that's left to parents to improvise. I've done my school, leave me alone.
