Illustrated by
Joyce Wan.
Eager for an egg to hatch, chick Peep tells Egg about the things they'll do together after it hatches. Egg refuses: everything is too scary, too high, etc. When Peep gives up trying to convince Egg, Egg is finally compelled to break out of its shell. The predictable story about overcoming fears is enhanced by graphically pleasing cartoon illustrations.
