What This Story Needs Is a Pig in a Wig audiobook

Synopsis- This story needs a pig. In a wig. In a boat in a moat… But what happens when, as more and more animals and their belongings appear on the small, over-crowded boat?What I Thought- This is a cute book. I like the rhyme, which reminds me a tad of Dr. Seuss’. I like Ms. Virgán’s illustrations. They have a fun, cartoon feeling about them. This story is perfect for bedtimes, and young kids starting to read.*NOTE* I got a free copy of this book in exchange for an honest review

HILARIOUS!

First sentence: What this story needs is a pig. A pig in a wig, on a boat, in a moat, with a frog, a dog, and a goat on a log.Premise/plot: This early reader is all about the rhyme. But just because it has simple rhymes, simple words, don't mistake it for a dull story where little happens. It has crazy action at times! My thoughts: Who knew that a story starring a pig in a wig could be so delightfully fun?! I am excited to read more books in this new series.For reference, this isn't as text heavy as the Elephant and Piggie series by Mo Willemstad.

My 3-year-old LOVES this one!

My daughter enjoyed the rhyming words. I liked the illustrations and the moral of the story. The problem solving was good too.

Very cute picture book that I plan to send out to my nephew. Loved the story and the rhyming reminded me of Dr Seuss.

Very very cute.

Adorable. Tell me one thing that DOESN'T need a pig in a wig and I'll tell you to stop lying.

What This Story Needs Is a Pig in a Wig is a cute rhyming story about a pig in a wig floating in a boat. She wants some company but too many friends join causing the boat to start to sink. Once the friends leave, pig is lonely and wants some more company. A bigger boat is the solution to Pig's problem!This book is super fun because all the words are rhyming and the pictures are bright and captivating. this is a good book for kindergarten-2nd grade early readers because the rhyming phrases make it easy to follow along and begin reading the words. I would use this book in my classroom because it's fun and an easy read for beginning readers.

This was great! The author takes simple classic rhymes , in the style of “Green Eggs in Ham” or “Frog on a Log” creating characters along the way and just runs with it. Then the author turns things on its head by subverting our expectations. It starts out with a Pig in a wig, and then a frog in a log, to a goat in a boat. Each creature arriving in the story with their rhyming counterparts. And it continues on until there are so many characters that one of them realizes it’s just getting ridiculous! Pig then tells them all to go away until she gets lonely and tells them all to come back! 😆

This is an excellent choice for beginner readers. There is a lot of repetition in the text and smaller words that will help the reader get more comfortable with reading. The story was light hearted and fun, it included the reader making it feel more personal. The illustrations were very simple and colorful and followed with the text reaffirming the story with the reader.

I absolutely loved this book! This book is a great choice for beginner readers as it provides rhyming words along with the repetitive text. As you continue to read the book you're provided with funny and colorful illustrations that follow the storyline. Overall, this is an amazing book, and I would definitely recommend it.

This fun story has a lot of repetition and silliness to entertain readers of all ages. It also makes a great beginning reader because the vocabulary is fairly simple and controlled. It reminds me a lot of Dr. Suess's Green Eggs and Ham, only shorter and easier to get through with more realistic illustrations. Definitely recommended!

This fun-loving book would be wonderful for a beginning reader! It shares a funky and fresh take on rhyming and poetry, which would help kids understand the difference in pronunciation of certain words and have fun with animals doing unusual things.

A perfect early reader. I say that because my six-year-olds are able to read it 100% independently. A pig in a wig in a boat in a moat is joined by various other rhyming animals and objects until it gets too crowded.

This is a beginning reader book. It is a good book to practice rhyming words. It would also be a good book to read when learning about different sight words. I would say this would fit K-2nd grades.
