Peppa Pig Class trip by Scholastic, series created by Neville Astley and Mark Baker This book takes us on a journey with Peppa Pig and her friends on a class trip to the top of the mountain. On the  trip the class eats snacks, enjoys the scenery, plays with the sounds of echoes from the top of the mountain, eats lunch, and feed the ducks followed by an ending of singing  a goodbye song. This book is interesting for young readers because it includes things that young children love to do. Every kids loves to eat snacks, listen to their echo, and sing songs after feeding the ducks at a picnic. his book is good for young readers because it relates to what they have experienced.

I love the simple and soft illustrations in this books, they are so inviting and make anyone feel as if they were on the journey with Peppa Pig and her friends.
