I bought this for my daughter to complete her Pip and Posy collection.
There is a teachable lesson about reconciling differences and learning to say sorry.

My 18 months granddaughter loves Pip and Posy books
by M Harris
I think this is best of all the Pip and Posy books so far. It seems far longer with much more plot than some of the previous books. A real improvement. The story follows Pip making friends with a snail, only for the snail to get scared by Posy being loud and then Pip shouting at her and making her cry. Then a bird tries to eat the snail, and Posy shouts to scare it away. They make up and play quietly. Good way to discuss when is the right time to be loud with your kids, and when you should be quieter out of consideration for others. Recommended.

I’m so excited about this book just arriving in the post! I hadn’t realised a new book in this fantastic series had come out until yesterday. In this story Pip makes friends with a little snail but unfortunately Posy is wanting to do lots of ‘noisy play’ and keeps scaring him away. It all works out in the end when Posy manages to scare a bird away that was about to fly off with the poor snail.
My 2 year old son absolutely loves these books. I think I have read Pip and Posy: The Super Scooter over one hundred times! I cannot wait to read this to him. I know it will be a new favourite and he’ll be saying ‘again’, ‘again!’ These stories are so relatable to young children and as always the illustrations are stunning. We love talking about all the things happening in the pictures. Another brilliant book.

While the book was in good condition, on one page part of a sentence had a black line through it. Then someone had written three different words above the line in black felt pen. So the words had changed from “be friends again.” to “have a cuddle”. So it was advertised as very good condition, but nobody had checked it thoroughly. But I kept it and read it to my grandchild as it was written originally.

Our one year old absolutely loves all of the pip and posy books. They have been great for encouraging his speech, the illustrations provide some really great opportunities for discussion and for them to tell you what is happening in the book. Really sweet.
