Happy Pig Day!-An Elephant and Piggie Book [Willems, Mo] on desertcart.com. *FREE* shipping on qualifying offers. Happy Pig Day!-An Elephant and Piggie Book Review: The BEST Elephant and Piggie Book. - My husband, my daughter (just turned two years old), and I absolutely LOVE the Elephant and Piggie books. They are our all time favorite set, and we read them every single night before bed time. If you are not familiar with the Elephant and Piggie books, here is what you need to know. 1.) Gerald (the elephant) is a boy and Piggie is a girl. They are both hilarious, and you and your child will grow to love them. 2.) The text is in speech bubbles throughout all the stories. These are easy reads, with few difficult vocabulary words for even the youngest readers. These are only a few words on most pages. I highly recommend previewing one or more books before purchasing. 3.) They are funny. Most books have a clever twist at the end that everyone gets a kick out of. 4.) They look terrific as a set. We own all of the books, and they look great lined up on our bookshelf. The book covers are very nice and sturdy. These are actually the ONLY books we've ever purchased new (all others were gifts or thrift store finds. We are penny pinchers, but these books are WORTH the dollars as they are terrific and look awesome). If you ARE familiar with the books, here's what you need to know about THIS book. 1.) This is my FAVORITE Elephant and Piggie book. In fact, it is my favorite Mo Willems book! It may just be my favorite kids books. I get so excited when my two year old chooses this one to read. 2.) This book is the perfect combination of silliness and good lessons. It is definitely funny, as Piggie gets ready to celebrate a day made just for pigs. However, it also teaches great lessons to little ones. Piggie can certainly celebrate where he came from, but it is important not to exclude those that are different from you (i.e. non-pigs in this book). It shows Elephant expressing how he doesn't feel welcome, and it shows Piggie showing how to include his friend in his fun. Overall, great lessons that are hilariously expressed. Bottom line - BUY ALL THE ELEPHANT AND PIGGIE BOOKS! Review: Laughter for the whole family! - We love elephant and piggy books!! We got this one as a gift. The whole family loves these from my 2yo to my 8yo. Great for early readers and so silly for the big kids. It’s so great to have the family read them together bec it’s giggles on giggles!

Great First-Reader Series!
Great First Reader book series. Perfect for a 1st Grader, age 6, to practice reading. Also good for younger children to be read to. This one is about emotions - happy and "crabby" themes. Hard cover book is well made - quality paper and properly bound. I highly recommend!

Can't say enough good things about this series. This author is a genius..extremely funny, meaningful, and educational (without the kids knowing it). Honestly, I'm an adult and Piggie and Elephant make me laugh out loud! The illustrator is also a genius. He/she truly brings the characters to life. The kids truly savor - and ask me all the time to read them again and again! I wish there were more!!
