Peppy and the Giant Snowball - Hardcover

by Jones (Author)

Peppy races against a giant, ever growing snowball hoping to rescue his younger brother Bellybutton from danger. Will Peppy get to his brother in time? Peppy and the Giant Snowball tells the story of a brother's courageous act of love, encouraging young readers and listeners in the values of family and faith.

Peppy and the Giant Snowball by M. D. Jones is a short story about a family of penguins. The illustrations by Jonathon Taylor are amazing and colorful and help bring the story to life. This is a fun story, but it also teaches kids that courage is important, as is family. Peppy shows that he will do whatever it takes to save his brother from danger, no matter how much danger he puts himself in. It also teaches kids to have faith, not just in themselves and their families, but in God, too. At the end of the book is a short series of "huddle up" questions, testing children on how well they understand the messages in the story and how they can show faith in their family and God. This is a wonderful story told by the author to his kids when they were young and based on real events from his own childhood - real experiences always make the best stories.Highly recommended for kids of all ages.-Anne-Marie Reynolds for Readers' Favorite
