Peepo by Janet and Allan Ahlberg

A peak-a-boo classic which recounts observations made by an unnamed baby boy discovering the world around him. It is beautifully illustrated and speaks of a bygone wartime era of close-knit families growing up in iconic British back-to-backs. Told in a lyrical verse, the story combines repetition with familiar observations and counting elements to introduce toddlers to 1, 2, & 3. A warm, familial story, with home and hearth illustrations celebrating the family dynamic and the baby’s role within it.
