Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com 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. An American Library Association Notable Book. (Baby to preschooler) --This text refers to the School & Library Binding edition.


Review

"One lingers over the pages, not only because the game is fun, but also because they contain action and humor." (School Library Journal) "A pleasing marriage of text and art. Children are sure to rise eagerly to the Ahlbergs' cheery and clever challenge." (Harpers) --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Captivating Piece of Literature for All Ages, October 6, 1999
This review is from: Each Peach Pear Plum (An I-Spy-Book) (School & Library Binding)
I was introduced to this book during my language arts class for elementary education majors. Our wonderful professor read this book to us as a read aloud experience. All of us being adults was abosolutely fasinated by this book. We were all trying to find the charatcers on each page and each one of us fell in love with this book. This book is so much fun but it also gives young children the chance to learn how to read by hearing the rhyming words used throughout the book. I have read this book to several children and I cannot express to you enough how much each one of them love this book. Please purchase this book!!!!!!!!! I insure you it will be a treasure for your child and you as well.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great to grow up with!, April 1, 1999
By Julie Fifelski (East Lansing, Michigan USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Each Peach Pear Plum (An I-Spy-Book) (School & Library Binding)
I am in college right now, and my mother called me up a few days ago to ask me if I could order "Each Peach Pear Plum" for her "adopted grandson." I immediately went back to my childhood, reminiscing about how this was always my very favourite of all books. I mean, I GREW UP with this thing. Whenever my mom and I would go to the library when I was little, I would ALWAYS HAVE to check this book out, so finally in 1985, when I was 5 years old, she gave me my own copy, and I've cherished it ever since. I learned to memorise every line, and to this day, I can repeat the entire story from start to finish without even thinking twice!

5.0 out of 5 stars Who can you spy.......? - 'Each Peach Pear Plum.', December 5, 2000
By Kate woods (Swansea University - Wales.) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Each Peach Pear Plum (Picture Puffins) (Paperback)
This is a book that I was first introduced to during an English lesson during my PGCE course. After just one reading I have had to go out and buy my very own copy.

I was in awe of the magical combination of rhyme and illustration.

The rhyming text is based aroung a game of 'I spy'. There is a lot of rhyme and repition which is very appealing to young children.

The book is cleverly crafted to incorporate many well known fairytale and nursery rhyme characters and your job as the reader is to spot them!

The Rhymed verses give youngsters clues about who they can look for in each beautiful picture.

The book is a wonderful way to introduce children to the world of rhyme and with a second reading the children will be joining in with you.

As a basis for classroom work it could be used in many different ways. The children could be encouraged to create their own 'I spy' stories with hidden characters to fool the reader.

'Each Peach Pear Plum' is an excellent example of the joys of picture books, it is simple and fun yet intricate and detailed.

I challenge you to be unswayed by its charms.
