Peppa is ready for a very busy day at school. There's going to be a talent show, but first there are tasks to accomplish, such as counting and music, and even recess. By the afternoon, all the students are ready to offer up their special talents. Peppa watches with concern as everything she loves to do is being shown by others. Will she find her own special talent? Neo has many talents that he can showcase, reading alongside his dad being but one.

Jack borrowed this book from the Columbus Metropolitan Library. Dada picked it because Jack loves Peppa.

Jack was so excited to find this book in the library book bin at our house. He pulled it out and goes, "Oh, what's this? It's Peppa!" Then he asked me to read it multiple times. He especially loved the counting and the ABC pages and enjoyed naming the letters and objects. He also liked that George painted a dinosaur.

Mr Oz is gearing up for another try at preschool. So we got some books set in school. Peppa doesn't know what her special talent will be. Meanwhile the kids partake of all sorts of fun sounding activities.

I give it 3 stars because I'm not really sure there's any point to the story other than it's Peppa.

This book is perfect for a kiddo who is heading to school soon. It follows Peppa Pig during her very busy day at school. It's easy to understand and full of vibrant illustrations. The story and illustrations match the television show perfectly, making it a great choice for anyone who enjoys Peppa Pig.

Miss 2 loves Peppa Pig; she enjoys the books just as much as she enjoys watching the show. This book, as well as containing the Talent Show, also conveniently covers the alphabet and counting to ten.

Peppa Pig: Busy Day at School helps preschoolers prepare for their first day of school with some of their favorite characters. They'll realize school isn't so scary when they see how much fun Peppa is having, and they'll also understand how exciting it can be. They have a talent show, learn to count and go through the whole alphabet with corresponding words that begin with each letter. They also talk about art and music class, lunch, and recess. Peppa definitely helps kids get exited about the Back to School season with adorable illustrations and cute storyline.

Just got back from England this summer and Peppa Pig is HUGE in Britain. So I made my director buy several Peppa Pig books (I will get this Utahan Indoctrinated with Peppa Pig. They show the cartoon on NickJR and they are exceptional. (my friend who is British and lives in the US say she has her kids watch it so they are familiar with a British accent. I first thought the name was Pepper Pig (as you know the Brits with there accents...) I think they are fun, the pictures are fun, the story is good, I like it!!

Peppa Pig(TM) has a special talent. She can jump in a mud puddle.

I wonder if she can jump in a pile of horsecrap. If so, she'll be jumping on this book.

My daughter loved this book. It helps toddlers prepare for the inevitable first day of school. It's similar to the show so Candlewick press did a good job. I highly recommend it for children.

Me encantan estos libros! Iba leyendo de lo mejor hasta que aparece la parte de los talentos y en mi mente sólo visualizaba el video de turn down for what y fue imposible no reír.
