Piggies in the Pumpkin Patch by Mary Peterson and Jennifer Rofe, illustrated by Mary Peterson

2010/28 pgs.

About the Book: Two piggies run amok on the farm.

Sarah Teenlibrarian Says: This is a cute little picture book that is perfect for reading aloud to toddlers. I'm sure my two-year-old niece would get a kick out of it. The two piggies run all over the farm and through the pages of the book getting into all sorts of trouble.

It's a simple book with not much storyline and the text is OK but nothing special. I liked how the words varied on each page, so sometimes they were slanted, or curving through the pigs adventures. It made the book a bit more visually appealing. I would have liked the words to rhyme or have a plot at least. But toddlers won't care and they'll enjoy the adventures of the pigs no matter what adults think of the book.
