Extrait

The short, simple sentences have a winning,

read-aloud rhythm, and King s sketched ink and

watercolor-washed illustrations make the most

of Piglet s changing moods, from exuberance

to the sting after a scolding and then back to

exuberance when she is reassured that Papa s

love is constant.

-Booklist

Reminiscent of

Are You My Mother?

, this is sure

to become a beloved favorite as well.

-Kirkus Reviews

The little pig s emotions are beautifully

portrayed, and her relationship with her papa is

perfect. Sure to be a winner in story times and on

laps one-on-one as well.
