Peppa Pig and the Busy Day at School

N/A . Candlewick, $12.99 (32p) ISBN 978-0-7636-6525-8

Peppa Pig eagerly anticipates taking part in her school’s Special Talent Day in her third picture-book adventure. First, she and her classmates enjoy a long day of activities including counting, an ABC lesson (one spread features objects for each letter of the alphabet, giving readers a chance to brush up on their skills), art, recess, and music. Finally, it’s time for the class to share their talents, but going last means that other students have already jumped rope, sang, and danced. Support from her friends and an enterprising idea let Peppa regain her confidence. Peppa and crew cheerfully proffer a lesson about expectations, disappointments, and being resourceful. Ages 2–5. (June)
