1: One of our favorites
I got this book because my 2 1/2 year old couldn't get enough of "The Bear's Toothache." (also highly recommended.) I love the colorful pictures. My son has learned what bagpipes are and what begging is because of these illustrations. My friend who teaches 1st grade was around when I was reading this book with my son and she informed me that this kind of rhyming book is so good for children. (I pause before the last word of the paragraph which completes the rhyme and my son finishes it for me.) I am getting this as a gift for a few people this year.

2: Very fun read!
This is a fun book to read! I have twins who are almost 2 and they love the book and the way it rhymes. The first time my husband read the book to our kids he was laughing and both of us consider this book one of our favorites! Definitely a good one to add to your collection!

3: Pigs Aplenty, Pigs Galore!
This is an excellent and hillarious poetry book. I used to work in an elementary school library. The kids would love it when I would read it out loud to them. This also makes a good oral language book. My own kids love it as well. The pictures are great.

4: Love this book!
I teach kindergarten and my students picked out this book for me to read to them during snack time and I fell in love. Now it's one of their favorite and I have it memorized. I'm buying one through amazon to have at home to read to my own son. Not only is the text funny, flowing, and interesting... but the illustrations are absolutely hilarious! My students love to act out the pictures and point and laugh at pigs in their underpants and a cow tied down to train tracks. Did I mention that I love this book?

5: Top Ten Requested
We checked this book out from the library and it has become one of the top ten requested reads from my daughters (4 & 2-years old), so we've decided to purchase a copy.
Not only are the story and rhymes great, but the pictures are incredible for playing "I spy". "I spy a pig in a kilt! Who else spies him?" There's alot of action and detail, so it's a lot more than just a good reading book or a great picture book.
I think this book should be on the book shelf of every kid!!
