An Elephant & Piggie Biggie! (An Elephant and Piggie Book)

My five-year-old twins started school this past fall and we've been introduced to a number of new books that we hadn't heard before. I hadn't heard of Mo Willems before they went to school (Why? I don't know.) but now we have built quite a collection of his books. I saw this book in a bookstore about a month ago and figured it would be a great addition to our collection since we didn't have any of the books. I ended up ordering it from here since it was a much better price. An Elephant & Piggie Biggie! is a compilation of five stories written by wonderful and hilarious children's author, Mo Willems. The stories are funny, include lovable characters, and teach valuable lessons in a gentle way that kids really enjoy. The stories included in this book are : Today I Will Fly!, Watch Me Throw the Ball, Can I Play Too?, Let's Go for a Drive!, and I Really Like Slop! This is a hardcover book with the paperback pages and it's the same as the individual stories, just five times as big! There are 309 total pages and each story is roughly 57 pages. There are a lot of pages but each page generally has one or two sentences. My kids were so excited when this arrived in the mail! Elephant & Piggie are always popular in our house and my kids will stop what they are doing when I pull out these stories. I love the funny stories and drawings and I look forward to reading them to my kids. These are popular in classrooms because of the gentle lessons they teach and they hold active kids' attention! We are building our collection of these books and this book took care of several of them. It's a thicker book so it's harder to hold but I feel the value is worth it. This book would make a wonderful gift for boys and girls in the preschool to elementary age range primarily but I'm sure other kids would enjoy them as well. I highly recommend stories by Mo Willems and this book is a wonderful addition to our collection!

I'm so glad I bought these books it is totally worth the cost and is such a great and fun read for me and my daughter.

My faucet jumped right into reading this book. We have struggled to get her motivated to read due to her dyslexia diagnosis, this was just the thing we needed. The text is short and the stories are funny and engaging.

We love the Pigeon and now we have met Elephant and Piggie. Piggie is a joyful optimist. Elephant is a good friend with literal tendencies. This book has 5 stories that will make reading fun.

Great book for all ages. Very funny stories. Very loveable characters. The only thing I don't like is the pages are hard to turn. They're thick and rough so you almost have to pick your fingers to turn them.

My children loved the stories. They were funny and kept them fully engaged and listening, looking for me to turn the page. They wanted more.. and that was from two years old to seven years old. I was even laughing.. Highly recommend!!!

This book is perfect for toddlers. It has cute , colorful illustrations and is easy to read. Text size is good. My 4 year old loves these stories. Being 5 books in 1 makes it great value for money. Good quality paper too. Highly recommend if you have toddlers.

My kindergartner LOVES these books! She was getting the standalone volumes from her school library, so I went ahead and bought her this volume with 5 stories. I will find her reading them to herself in the morning when she wakes up and she will beg to have her extra 15 minutes before lights out to read them at night! Easy words for a new reader to figure out and enough repetition to make them confident with new words.

Mo Willems is a fantastic children's book writer. His illustrations are so full of personality and are truly hilarious to watch as you read the stories. My kids love all the Gerald and Piggie stories just as much as they love the Willems' Pigeon book series. The English is also simple enough for ESL households since the English is short and relatively simple. I definitely recommend this collection of stories!

çok şeker eğlenceli hikayeler... Gerald ve domuzcuğun mimikleri vücut dilleri çok tatlı....

C'est un livre génial pour les enfants pour apprendre l'anglais, ma fille de 3 ans et demie l'adore. Les phrases sont courtes et se répètent donc elle fini pour apprendre les constructions. En plus c'est instructive par rapport à l'enseignement de valeurs dans la vie. Il y a 5 histoires

Excelente!Super interessante para as crianças, muito bom para iniciar a leitura! As ilustrações são atrativas! Chegou em perfeito estado. Recomendo!

We love Elephant and Piggie and to get 5 in 1 for this price is a bargain. We have a few Elephant and Piggie books already as gifted to us by some American friends. The ideas are simple, the characters are fun, the words are simple, the pictures are really visual. I bought this for Y3 readers at school who are really struggling with reading and who have grown out of all the books schools can put their way and need to see that reading can be a) something they can do and b) fun. My son was able to read them at 4 and hopefully will still be reading them at 94, provided he lives that long.
