In another Back to the Basics (and Board Books) or BB(BB) episode, Mike and David dish on one of David's favorites, Each Peach Pear Plum. Mike's opinion? "It's one of David's favorites."

Why did David like it so much? Is it the nursery rhyme characters or lots of neat "I spy" details that David certainly noticed when he read it to his girls? Or is it, that it's illustrated in his favorite art medium/media: black ink with watercolors! You'll have to listen to find out.

The Dads also discuss what makes a classic? While this book is older than their daughters, it's younger than they are. Weigh in if you'd like.
