Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

A Rick Walton classic (and one of his most popular children's books) returns in paperback It's the three little pigs with a whole new twist When three brothers (Pig, Pigger, and Piggest) meet three sisters (Witch, Witcher, and Witchest) the results are a muddy mess in which they all live sloppily ever after. Author Rick Walton is well known for his highly entertaining illustrated books, which simultaneously teach children language arts principles. This rollicking tale is enhanced by the lively illustrations of Jimmy Holder. Now available for the first time in paperback, Pig, Pigger, Piggest is a book your whole family will love.

Review:

"Perhaps not the funniest, it's funnier than many; and definitely a funny book." Publishers Weekly

Review:

"It's a little light on content and originality, yet heavy enough on silliness. The jaunty illustrations have a slick, artsy look and plenty of appeal." Children's Literature

Synopsis:

It's the three little pigs with a whole new twist When three brothers (Pig, Pigger, and Piggest) meet three sisters (Witch, Witcher, and Witchest) the results are a muddy mess in which they all live sloppily ever after.

I am a homeschooling mom of 8, and this book is one that all of my children love to hear again and again! The illustrations are engaging, and the twist on this old nursery tale is humorous.
