1: jillian jillian jillian jiggs, maker of wonderful marvelous pigs!
like it's predecessor, this book is a great children's book. jillian is finished tidying her room and has now decided that she will make pigs! she makes a lot of pigs and then decides to sell them with her friends, but when people start buying her pigs she discovers that she's too emotionally attached to her pigs to sell them. so instead she gives lessons on how to make pigs. at the end of the book there is a little pattern that teaches you how to make a stuffed pig.
like the first book it rhymes nicely and like the first book, the illustrations are very expressive and energetic. great series.

2: LOVED IT!
I am a HUGE fan of the works of Phobe Gillman! The Wonderful Pigs of Jillian Jiggs is a really great book! It's a lot of fun to read to the children in my daycare as the story is funny, imaginative, keeps the interest of the children. I feel it's something we can all really relate to; putting your imagination to work, your heart and soul into a project, developing a bond with what you have created and being torn as to whether you should and/or could share it! Jillian names all of her pigs and Phobe gives you detailed instructions on how to "create" your own pig, just like Jillian did. Great story...one of my tops 10 favorites of all time!

3: Great kids book!
These are some of the best children's books I have ever read (and I've read many a bedtime story!). This one is a house favorite and has been read so many times none of us have to look at the words anymore. They rhyme throughout each book (which helps the children read along), have a very cute story my kids love to read over and over and I can't forget to mention the great illustrations. One other bonus to this installment in the Jillian Jiggs series is the instructions in the back of the book on how to make your own 'Wonderful Pigs'.

4: This is a great book!!!
The whole book rhymes so I loved reading it. The kids loved listening to it and I promised to buy what we need to make our own wonderful pigs (there are instructions in the book)This book is very highly recommended.

5: Jillian loves her pigs
My Kindergartners loved this book because Jillian, the title character, gets a great idea to create pigs but realizes that her hard work is hard to sell. Everyone wants to buy her beautifully made pigs, however Jillian becomes sad at the idea of selling them. To solve her problem, she teaches others how to make their own "wonderful" pigs! We could not resist the temptation to create and decorate our own pigs in our class!
