Voyager Books, 1996

A must-have addition to any classroom or childrens' library!
This is one of my favorites. It is a lively, imaginative book that is fun to read aloud. I just read it today in fact to a group of second graders and they loved it so much they all clapped at the end. You will captivate your audience and have opportunities to discuss a wonderful alternative to profanity that is logical. As one other reviewer said, this book does lend itself well to a follow ...

Piggies is Perfect
When our children were under 5, Piggies was an all time favorite. I must admit that despite reading after reading at bedtime... those Piggies still put a smile on my face. This book is absolutely delightful and funny. Every page has an illustration that is worth taking a few minutes to appreciate the humorous details of those Piggies. My wife and I now give Piggies as a gift to the parents ...

La Casa Adormecida
The language is simple and repeptitive, making this a great book to teach Spanish in Elementary and Middle grades. Illustrations are great. It's also a good book for native speakers practicing reading. I use it as a check-out book for English as a Second Language students, to motivate literacy acquisition.

One of my favorite books!
I teach kindergarten and this is one of my favorite books to share with my class. I love the pictures and the kids are fascinated by the story. I had the book in paperback, but it has worn out. I now have my old paperback book to check out to the children and my own copy to cherish.

My [...] son loves it!
My son cannot get enough of this book! We first borrowed it from the library (three consecutive times) and then eventually had to purchase it because he wanted to read it all of the time (I thought other kids should have the opportunity to check it out of the library!). It has really taught him his ABCs in a fun way, and now he has the story practically memorized. Although I like the book I ...

He LOVES it!
My son loves this book and all of the Alphabet books by Audrey Wood. We started reading them together when he was 2 1/2 and the books quickly became his favorites. He has them all memorized and we incorporate "ABC adventures" into stories that we make up for him every night before he goes to sleep. I highly, highly recommend this book and the others by Audrey Wood.

The Blue Sky Press, 2005

A hit with our 1 year old!
This book is fun to read; it is rhythmic and the story builds page by page. It's different than most children's books: big, simple, crisp and bright (computer generated?). My son gives a little giggle when we pull it out.

Lovely book to read to younger grandchildren
My grandchildren have all loved this book. Now I'm going to get another one to read to my two youngest grandchildren. The illustrations are delightful and encourage discussion about the different piggies. There aren't too many words on the pages, so the little ones don't get too restless. This book provides one of those precious opportunities for grandparents or parents to share quality time with ...
