Read to me by a six-year-old. This is the only way I want to read Elephant and Piggie books from now on.

The Elephant and Piggie books are probably my favorite picture book series. In this story, Piggie has a new toy but he isn't exactly sure what it is or what it does. When Gerald accidentally hurts the new toy, Piggie gets very upset and the duo is threatened! The book shows readers themselves when it comes to sharing, bragging, and selfishness while then giving an effective moral at the end with the help of the squirrel. SUCH an excellent read.

Sweet picture book. Part of Mo Willems' Gerald & Piggy series. My library students love them!

Mo Williams's "Elephant and Piggy" books are great for beginning learns. The pages have simple illustrations and minimal words but are still fun to read and teach valuable lessons about friendship.
