This
is a delightfully funny story of a pig that finds a wig, and although he is
very smitten with himself and his new look, it actually sets him up for lots of
trouble and danger as the other farmyard animals do not recognise him.
Chrissie
Krebs has created a fun-filled adventure that children will enjoy reading over
and over again.
The
text is composed of well-written rhyming couplets, in comedic but mature
language that will surely engage children.
Her illustrations are hilarious - enriching the whole story with a cast
of interesting and expressive characters …and the end-papers are imaginative and
adorable.
Well
done to the talented author-illustrator Chrissie Krebs.
P.S.
Looking forward to seeing her version of The Cat in the Hat. (You’ll need to
read the book to see what I’m talking about!)
