一大清早,爸爸說:「今天你該學著啄樹木囉!」小啄木鳥從樹幹和籬笆開始練習,接著飛進一棟房子裡,啄啄沙發、網球拍…甚至連洗髮精都逃不過牠的「鳥吻」!小啄木鳥把家裡的衣服和食物都啄了一遍,覺得有點累、又有點頭暈,趕快回到爸爸身邊享受無限的疼愛。Lucy Cousins透過這個幽默的故事,將孩子嘗試新事物的興奮和成就感表露無遺,巧妙的挖洞設計更讓小朋友能夠一起和啄木鳥啄遍各種家中用品,忍不住一讀再讀。

Today my daddy said to me, "It's time you learnt to peck a tree." Little Woodpecker has just learnt how to peck and - ooh! yippee! - what fun it is! Off he goes, on his first big pecking adventure, and he peck, peck, pecks his little heart out. He pecks the hat and then the mat, the tennis racket AND the jacket ... just LOOK at all the holes he has made! Comical, contemporary and original! A stunning new picture book title from Lucy Cousins, with colour so exuberant it leaps right off the page.
