In this playful and whimsical picture book, young readers are invited on a hilarious adventure as a curious girl tries to figure out what exactly a peachick is. The author-illustrator team behind Standing on One Leg Is Hard delivers another clever, light-hearted tale that’s sure to entertain.
The illustrations, bright and cartoonish, follow the girl's wild imagination as she explores different possibilities, from animals to foods, that might have "chicks" in their names. The vibrancy of the artwork is sure to engage young readers, with bold colours and expressive characters bringing the girl’s silly ideas to life. Each page bursts with energy, making it a visual treat that’s easy for little ones to follow.
The text is filled with clever wordplay and humorous language, making the rhyming story flow smoothly. Parents and children will both enjoy the silly possibilities the girl comes up with, and there’s a fun twist near the end when she considers asking a peacock what a peachick is—but then decides he probably wouldn’t know either!
The book's simplicity, combined with its bright illustrations and witty language, make it an excellent choice for young readers, perfectly paired with Standing on One Leg Is Hard, which features a young heron grappling with their own challenges.
This is a delightful, easy-to-read book that invites children to laugh and explore the world of language and imagination. It’s a great choice for storytime or independent reading for kids just starting out.
