Thistle: A Curious Peep is a picture book that will whisk you and your kids away on a delightful little journey with Thistle, who is in fact a very curious peep. The author Robert Wasilewski’s has written an enchanting tale of Thistle and his adventures along with the other barnyard animals. I found it to be a true delight for readers of all ages, I think I enjoyed it just as much as my own children did. My kids were captivated by Thistle’s adventure. We were too excited following along with him as he explored the world around him. It served as a reminder to never let your own curiosity go, it’s a part of what makes the world so exciting. The illustrations are beautifully rendered as well, which brings the story to life in detail. Whether read as a bedtime story or during an afternoon story time session, Thistle: A Curious Peep has become favorite in our household. I’d recommend it to any parent out there who wants to foster their child’s curiosity!
Thistle: A Curious Peep
Thistle is a peep whose curiosity always gets him to wander off and not stay in line with his brothers and 
sisters as Mama Midnight wants. Even a pile of leaves piques his curiosity. The barnyard animals come up with various solutions. Will they work?
Mama Midnight is adamant about Thistle staying in line until one night Thistle wanders off. It is a night the barnyard animals will never forget!
