What is a Peachick?

What is a peachick?
I’ve heard of a chickpea.
I’ve had those for lunch.
Is a peachick the same?
Is it something you munch?


Come on a hilarious adventure with these weird and zany creatures, from the author and illustrator of Standing on One Leg Is Hard


Reviews

"With a fantastic use of rhythm and wordplay, McGann and McFarland reunite after the success of Standing on One Leg is Hard with another entertaining picturebook." Irish Examiner


"The perfectly topsy-turvy text is accompanied by bright and dynamic illustrations that will keep readers engaged and turning pages as they hunt down the answer." — Children's Books Ireland Annual Reading Guide 2024 


"What is a peachick? The question but even more the various answers posited in this book will fascinate and entertain young children... It’s a lovely example of taking an idea for a walk and exercising the imagination." — Books for Keeps’ Book of the Week 


"A delightfully silly and funny look at the world of the peachick, ideal for reading aloud." Irish Independent


"This is a delightfully joyful book... the mismatched illustration style of McFarland's colourful collage is perfectly suited to the disjointed musings of the story. Hugely entertaining, I absolutely adored this book and look forward to seeing more collaborations with this duo in the future." Books Ireland Magazine
