What to expect: Favorite Characters, Birthdays, Interactive
Peppa, everyone’s favorite British pig, celebrates her birthday and is ready to play magnets with preschoolers everywhere. Both books highlight jolly and sweet Peppa Pig, whose bright and colorful nature (and adorable squishy nose) entrance young children. With very low stakes and perfectly happy endings, both of these Peppa Pig books make excellent bedtimes stories. Fun for everyone and guaranteed sweet dreams make these terrific additions to a preschooler’s library.

In PEPPA PIG: HAPPY BIRTHDAY! Peppa starts her family’s day bright and early at five in the morning. Parents have all been there, and this funny book might give some kids a great new idea for their birthdays. The festivities begin with favorite breakfast cereal and birthday presents. Next is a magically fun party with Daddy Pig dressed as a magician to entertain all of her friends. In true Peppa Pig fashion, the story ends on a super high note with a beautiful yellow cake and candles. A perfect party for Peppa Pig, and a sweet adventure perfect for preschoolers who can’t wait to have their birthdays. There’s also a birthday card page inside where you can address the book to the birthday child.
