My favorite book...
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago
I have not seen this book in many years so place yourself in a time machine and follow me back to elementary school. I must have been seven but I would check this book out of the library every week as experation came due. Can I say they were great limericks after my many years of learning since then? No, but I can say I never enjoyed a book more than Pigericks when I was young.
a fond favorite

i owned this book when i was a wee one, and i've since given it away to be enjoyed by other young children. it was always a childhood favorite of mine, one that was simple enough to read to myself, but also with some challenging words (like the uncouth pig from duluth). the pictures are also great, but of course that is to be expected from lobel. i was surprised to see the rather negative reviews this book has received so far, and i do not feel that they are merited. the book may not be as wonderfully whimsical as lobel's frog and toad series, but it does have great charm and humor. the repetitiveness of the short poems is very appealing to young children. this is not a children's book to be enjoyed by all ages; it's a children's book to be enjoyed by children.
