Peeps are those sugar-coated marshmallow candies shaped like chickens and bunnies that we find in our Easter baskets. Peeps are America’s number one selling non-chocolate candy. Peeps even have a book of their own, and Peeps are the perfect way to spend a first pocketful of spare change. Peeps: A Candy-Coated Tale is a light, sugary, silly read full of jokey photos of the Peeps candy characters, who in this case are a prominent Peepsville family-gone-missing. Follow clues and meet other Peepsville characters as you read through the pages of Peepsville newspapers, yearbooks, and magazines. Where are the Peeps? Can they be rescued before their expiration date? More important, do Peeps even have an expiration date? If you’ve never eaten a Peep candy before, you’ll definitely want to bite the squishy little head off one after this book. Eat-while-you-read: Peeps, of course, though the choice of chicks or bunnies is up to you.
