When
the little woodpecker featured in this picture book is told
by his father it is time he start pecking a tree, he embraces
the task wholeheartedly. What's more, the little bird has
a real knack for pecking holes in things.
Although his parent was thinking primarily of trees, the ambitious
little birds tackles other wooden objects like a fence, door,
tennis racket, and even some clothing. Suddenly nothing is
safe in the woodpecker family's household and holes are appearing
in the most surprising places.
As you page through this book you'll have no problem finding
the things that caught the woodpecker's attention; they all
have little holes in them. By the time you reach the back
of the book you'll find one page with over fifty holes. Someone
has been very, very busy!
Lucy Cousins' sense of humor shines forth in this cute picture
book about a bird who followed his father's advice a little
too well. Young children love silly stories and Peck,
Peck, Peck is guaranteed to elicit a few giggles.
