My 2 year old daughter has this and she loves it. It was a gift and I'm not sure what they paid. If I had to guess before seeing this I would've thought at least 30. It's a pretty cool little leaning toy.

Please read the books before deciding to buy any Peppa pig merchandise. The stories are sexist.

Why would a book be for girls only? Any kid can read it.

Be aware this is in heavy British accent and they're shaped like penis and balls.

Oh good lord... I do believe people could find something (insert random prefix)ist in everything, if that's what you are always looking for. What f'ing miserable life you must have and anyone that has to mandatorily be around you, because I can't imagine anyone voluntarily doing so.

I'm not always looking for it.Judge much? I am merely trying to role model the future generation rather than making them grow up to be racist bigots but apparently you don't care so that probably explains a bit about who you are.
It's not just my opinion. There are plenty of write ups in various publications. Seems like you enjoy attacking people, which I can't imagine other people would enjoy either.
May I suggest you actually read or watch some of the content in the books / shows?

I think I've watched every episode there is and don't see that it is like that. Pink is a terrible color since it is usually a sign of botched laundry -_- but to each their own. Women are extremely empowered on the show. There's even that episode where the mom shuts everyone up for saying that women can't do certain things. Like someone above said, you (not you specifically but in general) will always find something wrong with anything that's been created. Le sigh.

I agree about the empowerment part and specifically remember the show you were referencing. The pink parts I really wasn't even concerned about, it was the rest.
If people choose to let their kids read this then that is obviously their choice I was merely hoping they could make an informed decision rather than blindly assuming all books are appropriate for role modeling.
