A group of divine little swine host a delightful sing-song celebration of piggy pizzazz in this bouncy board book from the one and only Sandra Boynton.
Did you ever see noses so wonderfully round? Where else could these curly tails be found? From snuffling snouts to pleasing plumpness and fine, floppy ears, this cast of pink piglets reminds us all to celebrate what makes us unique.
We are all PERFECT PIGGIES and we know what we need.
It’s really very simple, very simple indeed—
A troughful of food. A place in the sun.
And a little bit of comfort when the day is done.
About the Author
Sandra Boynton is a popular American cartoonist, children’s author, songwriter, producer, and director. Since 1974, Boynton has written and illustrated over seventy-five children’s books and seven general audience books, including five New York Times bestsellers. More than 85 million of her books have been sold, “mostly to friends and family,” she says. She has also written (with Michael Ford) and produced six albums of renegade children’s music. Three of her six albums have been certified Gold (over 500,000 copies sold) and Philadelphia Chickens, nominated for a Grammy, has been certified Platinum (over 1 million copies sold). Boynton has also directed twelve music videos of her songs, including the award-winning “One Shoe Blues” starring B.B. King, “Alligator Stroll” starring Josh Turner, and “Tyrannosaurus Funk” (animated) sung by Samuel L. Jackson. She lives in rural New England, and her studio is in a barn with perhaps the only hippopotamus weathervane in America.
