Goodreads

Peppa Pig is a popular character in the age 2 – 5 circles, this book holds lots of excitement for pre-school children as there are six stories included within.  The hard cover is a good choice and the binding appears to be worthy of potential loving abuse.  The price for this collection is a plus as individual copies of the stories would be higher.   Each story  is simple and the illustrations colorfully sweet.

Not a fan of books that follow a TV series I have to admit that a special little one in my life loves Peppa Pig.   Although a good choice as a gift this may not be the best purchase for a library.  Young audiences are more apt to want individual titles that are easier to hold and carry around with their favorite stuffy.    Libraries and K classrooms may prefer paper copies that can be shelved with other books in the same reading level.
