About this book
Join Peggy and her grandad for a gentle outdoor adventure as they take an autumnal walk together. Peggy is curious and determined as she explores. She slides down hills, splashes in puddles and crunches through golden leaves while Grandpa follows patiently and talks to her about the world around them. Finally, after lots of outdoor fun, the pair head home for a well-deserved rest.
This is a warm and charming book that captures both the wonders of nature and the comfort of family. The story is simple but appealing, with plenty for young children to recognise and talk about in the detailed and cosy illustrations. Peggy and Grandpa model a lovely relationship that balances independence and exploration with the comfort of knowing that a trusted grown-up is there when help is needed.
A sweet and comforting story to share with toddlers and preschoolers, perfect for little ones who love exploring the world around them, especially in Autumn.
