Iggy Peck

Grace's current favorite book is Iggy Peck, Architect by Andrea Beaty with illustrations by David Roberts.  The book chronicles the saga of young Iggy Peck, who first showed signs of architectural brilliance at age two. Clever rhymes and brilliant illustrations set this book apart. Grace told me during last night's reading session that she wished she could watch Iggy Peck on TV.  She also told her preschool class all about it.
