Review blurbs for Kim’s new book:
* “Cole’s porcine hero steals the show: even the fussiest grownups will fall for this eager-eyed, grinning, leaping, prancing, filthy pig.Ewww. And awww.” (Publishers Weekly, starred review )
“A surefire winner.” (School Library Journal, starred review )
“Youngsters will eagerly join in and sing along with the cumulative verse and laugh out loud with the lovable piggy as he scampers throughout the fair, wreaking havoc everywhere he goes. This gleefully messy pig will prompt endless re-readings.” (Kirkus Reviews )
